What is the BTU output of an electric heater rated at 14.2 kw?
That is 50,000 BTU per hour.
What is the btu hour output of an electric heater rated at 15 kilowatts?
To convert the output of an electric heater from kilowatts to BTU per hour, you can use the conversion factor where 1 kilowatt is approximately equal to 3,412 BTU/hour. Therefore, a 15-kilowatt electric heater would produce about 51,180 BTU/hour (15 kW × 3,412 BTU/kW).
How resistance affect the intensity?
Resistance affects intensity by limiting the flow of electric current in a circuit. According to Ohm's Law (V = IR), for a given voltage, an increase in resistance results in a decrease in current, which in turn reduces the intensity of the electrical signal or power output. Essentially, higher resistance leads to lower intensity, while lower resistance allows for greater intensity.
What yields a higher heat output a electric heater with a higher or lower voltage?
Does not matter. But in a practical sense Its cheaper to get heat from high voltage because smaller wire, smaller breakers, and definitely less heat loss from the circuit wiring. It's called ixiR loss. Same reason overhead transmission lines are obcenely high voltage values. It is all relative. Heat equals this times that. Lower this, raise that. Horsepower equals this times that. Lower rpm, raise torque or vice versa. Navy wants planes to fly faster, lose weight, raise hydraulic pressure, reduce hydraulic line size. Electric, hydraulic, mechanical, it's all equal.
Will a 110 electric heater produce the same amount of heat as a 220 heater at 1000 watts?
No, a 1000-watt electric heater operating at 110V will produce the same amount of heat as a 1000-watt heater operating at 220V. The power output (in watts) determines the amount of heat produced, not the voltage.
What does high or low voltage do to the capacity of an electric heater?
Yes, voltage effects the output of electric heaters. The wattage output rating of the heater will not be reached due to the lower applied voltage. For example if the heater is 5000 watts at 277 volts, the current is I = W/E 5000/277 = 18 amps. The resistance of the heater is R = W/I (squared) = 5000/18 x 18 (324) = 15.43 ohms. Applying 220 volts on the same heater whose resistance is 15.43 ohms results in this new heater wattage rating. W = E (squared)/R = 220 x 220 (48400)/15.43 = 3137 watts. W = watts, I = amperage, R = resistance in ohms and E = voltage.
What is the Btu output of an electric heater rated at 15 Kw?
A bit north of 50,000btu/hr

What is the wasted energy output of an electric fan heater?
The wasted energy output of an electric fan heater is typically in the form of heat that is not directed towards heating the space efficiently. This can occur due to poor insulation, inefficient heating elements, or air leaks in the system. It is important to properly maintain and use the fan heater to minimize wasted energy.

Can I use a dimmer switch with an electric heater?
I posted this question before I registered. Here's an amplified version of the question: I have an electric floor mat heater that gets too hot. I've found a good dimming device made primarily for incandescent lights, one that uses a triac unit for reducing the electric output. Would this work well for my heater?
What yields a higher heat output a 2kw 277 volt electric heater or a 5 kw 230 volt electric heater'?
2kw = 6,827 Btu/ Hr 5kw = 17,076 Btu/Hr 5kw yields 10,249 Btu more /Hr
Input resistance and output resistance of Voltage series feedback amplifier?
output resistance decreases and input resistance increases
Why does the electric heater stay at a constant temperature?
An electric heater stays at a constant temperature because it has a thermostat that regulates the power supply to maintain a consistent heat output. When the temperature drops below the set point, the thermostat signals the heater to turn on and when it reaches the desired temperature, it turns off to prevent overheating.
What is the kilowatt output of an electric heater that has an ampere draw of 50 A and a voltage source of?
At 240 v and 50 amps the power is 12 kW because 240x50 is 12,000.
