Btu to gallons per minutes

Answer 1

Gallons of what? This would need to be known to give you a worthwhile answer. BTU is an energy unit; gallons per minute is a flow rate. It's not possible to convert one into the other. The second answer correctly states the question is comparing apples and Oranges so to speak. However the two are intimately related in as much as as one is necessary to support the other, that makes it a legitimate question. Example: In all instances Flow rate is relevant to BTU capacity:ie If a the fan belt breaks on a gas furnace and you lose your air flow, the furnace will overheat and shut down on it`s high limit safety. An extreme example? Yes, but the point is there are recommended air flow rates for different size(BTU) furnaces, an air conditioning unit requires appx 400 cfm per ton (12,000 btu) to operate properly, an evaporator on a water chiller requires 1.5 to 2.5 gpm per ton where the condenser on the same machine would need 3-5 gpm/ton for it to operate properly. If the fluid is changed the gpm also must change.

Answer 2

Converting from BTU (British Thermal Units) to gallons per minute depends on the specific application, as it involves different units and formulas for different systems. For example, in the context of a water heating system, you would need to know the specific heat capacity of the liquid and the temperature change to make the conversion. It's recommended to provide more context or specify the system for a more accurate conversion.
