To convert heating oil litres into kilowatt-hours (kWh), you need to know the energy content of the oil. Heating oil typically has an energy content of about 10 kWh per litre. Therefore, you can multiply the number of litres of heating oil by 10 kWh/litre to get the total energy in kWh. For example, 100 litres of heating oil would yield approximately 1,000 kWh of energy.
The amount of KWh used by an oil boiler in a year can vary based on factors such as the efficiency of the boiler, the size of the home, and how often the boiler is used. On average, a residential oil boiler may use around 2,000 to 3,000 kWh per year for heating.
The cost of oil in terms of kWh will depend on the efficiency of the oil-burning system. On average, one gallon of heating oil contains about 36.4 kWh of energy. To calculate the cost of oil in terms of kWh, divide the cost of a gallon of oil by 36.4.
It would be about 5.88 barrels. 10,000 kWh / 1,700kWh per boe = 5.882352941176471.... Source: http://bioenergy.ornl.gov/papers/misc/energy_conv.html Formula: Barrel of oil equivalent (boe) = approx. 6.1 GJ (5.8 million Btu), equivalent to 1,700 kWh.
The weight of 1 litre of cooking oil is approximately 0.92 kg. So, 20 litres of cooking oil would be roughly 18.4 kg (20 x 0.92).
== == It depends on where you live and the cost of the fuel. You have to convert to the heating value of gas and oil, factor in efficiency, and then compare the cost per BTU's. For example: Determine the cost of gas vs. oil in your area: For example, heating oil in Seattle is $4.10 per gallon while gas is $1.09 per therm. Next, calculate the cost of fuel per MMBTU's. Knowing that heating oil has 138,690 BTU per gallon and natural gas has 100,000 BTU per therm, you can calculate using this equation: $ cost --------- X 1,000,000 = cost per MMBTU BTU's The result of the above step is $29.56/MMBTU for oil, and $10.87/MMBTU for gas. Next, divide the above by the efficiency of the furnace. Oil furnaces are 80 to 90% efficient and gas furnaces are typically 83% efficient. The net cost of the fuel per MMBTU is $34.78 for oil and $13.09 for gas in this scenario. If your old house uses 63 MMBTU a heating season, that is a total of $2,200 for oil and $824 for gas for the whole heating season

can a home hot water heating system (radiators) be converted to gas fueled from oil fueled heating meathods?
Heating oil is typically not converted to electricity. It is burned in the furnace to create heat. Heating oil is less commonly used as an industrial fuel or for power generation. Oil fueled Turbines can be used to convert the heat energy of combustion into mechanical energy, which then operate an electrical generator.
40 litres of oil / 5 litres cans = 8 cans can be filled with 40 litres of oil.
3.35 litres without oil filter change 3.5 litres with oil filter change
3.2 litres from drained or 2.7 litres if not replacing the oil filter
5 litres bone dry fill, 4.5 litres if just changing oil + filter, 4.2 litres if just dropping the oil out.
Home heating oil can be purchased through a home heating oil company. To find home heating oil, find a local home heating oil in your area and contact them to find out more information on purchasing home heating oil.
3.6 Litres, and allow another 0.2 litres for the capacity of the oil filter if doing an oil change...
