I'm not sure and will have to research this, but let me kick it off by writing Btus/hr = CFM X 1.08 X temperature rise. Hopefully, others will weigh in and contribute further to this answer. (Since I supervise Units and Unit Conversions, I would like to admonish people to use the units Btus/hr, not just Btus, when referring to power.)
To convert BTU (British Thermal Units) to CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), you need to know the specific heat of the material being heated or cooled. The formula to convert is: CFM = (BTU/hr) / ((Temperature rise in °F) x (Specific heat of material)).
1 kilowatt is equal to 3,412 BTUs (British Thermal Units).
1 therm of gas is equal to 100,000 BTUs (British Thermal Units).
One ton of TNT is equivalent to approximately 4.184 billion British Thermal Units (BTUs).
To calculate BTUs from CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) and wet bulb temperatures, you can use the formula: BTUs = CFM × 4.5 × (Wb1 - Wb2), where Wb1 is the wet bulb temperature entering the system and Wb2 is the wet bulb temperature exiting the system. This formula accounts for the energy required to change the moisture content of the air. Be sure to convert temperatures to the same unit (usually Fahrenheit) before applying the formula.
To raise the temperature of 1 cubic foot per minute (CFM) of air by 1 degree Fahrenheit, it typically takes about 0.24 British Thermal Units (BTUs). This is based on the specific heat capacity of air, which is approximately 0.24 BTU/lb°F, and the density of air at standard conditions. Therefore, for 1 CFM of air, which weighs about 0.075 pounds, the calculation confirms that approximately 0.24 BTUs are needed to achieve a 1°F increase in temperature.

1tr = 400 cfm
To convert BTU (British Thermal Units) to CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), you need to know the specific heat of the material being heated or cooled. The formula to convert is: CFM = (BTU/hr) / ((Temperature rise in °F) x (Specific heat of material)).
The Trane model SCX73A typically has a cooling capacity of around 2 to 5 tons, which translates to approximately 24,000 to 60,000 BTUs. The corresponding airflow (CFM) is generally around 400 CFM per ton of cooling capacity. Therefore, for a 5-ton unit, you would expect airflow to be in the range of 2,000 CFM. Always check the specific product documentation or consult a professional for precise specifications.
