One btu will heat a pound of water about one degree Fahrenheit in one hour.
Consider that there are 138, 500 BTUs per gallon of heating oil. Crank the handle on the math machine and that's 7.22 x 10-6 gal / BTU for your energy equivalent. To generate one BTU per hour, that's how much oil it will take.

To heat 1 pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit, you need 1 British Thermal Unit (BTU). This is based on the definition of a BTU, which is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit at a constant pressure.
We found the following definition on the www: 1 BTU = 1,055.05585 joules Using that, 340 BTU/sec = 358,719 joule per second = 358.719 KW. Really an awful lot of power ! From this little exercise, we're going to remember the following: 1 BTU = a little more than 1,000 joules 1 BTU/sec = a little more than 1 kilowatt
BTU
The answer: 17070 BTU The math: 3414 BTU = 1 KVA (KW) so 5 KVA = 17070 BTU
1 BTU (British Thermal Unit) is approximately equal to 1055.06 Joules.
70000 BTU/hr = 20.5kW > 70000 BTU/min = 1230.9kW > 70000 BTU/sec = 73854.2kW
1 BTU=0.252164401 kilocalories 1 BTU=0.252164401 kilocalories
There are approximately 0.00094781712 BTU in one joule.
There are 100,000 BTU (British Thermal Units) in a therm.
11800 BTU/hr is 3.46kW
One million btu equals 10 therms. One hundred thousand btu equals one therm.
