How many btu are there in 1 horsepower?

1hp = 2544 Btu


How many horsepower is 9000 btu split air conditioner?

A 9,000 BTU split air conditioner typically has a cooling capacity of about 2.6 kW. To convert this to horsepower, you can use the conversion factor where 1 horsepower is approximately equal to 0.746 kW. Therefore, 2.6 kW is roughly equivalent to about 3.5 horsepower. However, it's important to note that air conditioners are usually rated in BTUs rather than horsepower, so this is a general estimate.


How big an air conditioner is needed to cool 9000 watts of lighting?

1055 watts = 1 BTU/s, so 9000 watts x 1 BTU/s/W x 3600s/hr = 30,710BTUH, or about 2 1/2 tons.


How much horsepower in one BTU?

The formula for this question is ... horse power = btu / 2545 Therefore 1 / 2545 = .0003929 hp


How many horsepower is 1000000 btu?

1 HP = 2545 BTU/hour So 10000 is about 4 HP


How many kilowatts are there in 30000 btu?

This is a power unit conversion from British thermal units per hour (Btu/hr.) to its equivalent in horsepower (hp). There are 2544.43 btu/hr. in one horsepower. Conversely, there are 0.000393 hp in one Btu/hr.


How many BTU per hour is 2.5 ton in HVAC?

A 2.5 ton A/c is the same as 30,000 BTU's 1 ton = 12,000 BTU's


What is the relation between horsepower and British Thermal Unit?

Answer: Boilers were at one time (and some still are) rated in horsepower, where 1 horsepower equals the ability to evaporate 34.5 pounds of water into steam. In this unusual application, 1 horsepower would be equal to 33,472 BTU. Answer: Well, it's a bit far fetched to link the two... but... the BTU is a measure of energy, heat energy. The more thermally efficient an engine is, generally speaking, the more horsepower that it will produce. Answaer: 1hp (british)=2544.434btu/hr


What is 1 percent of 9000?

1 percent of 9000 = 901% of 9000= 1% * 9000= 0.01 * 9000= 90


How many boiler horsepower equal 45 KW in electric heaters?

1 HP = 2446 btu/hr and 1 kWh=3413 btu/hr so 1kWh = 1.413 HP, thus 45kWh x 1.413 = 63.585 HP.


How many BTU in 1.5 hp air conditioner?

A 1.5 horsepower (hp) air conditioner typically has a cooling capacity of about 18,000 BTU (British Thermal Units) per hour. This is based on the general conversion where 1 hp is approximately equal to 12,000 BTU. Therefore, a 1.5 hp unit would be calculated as 1.5 x 12,000 BTU, resulting in around 18,000 BTU.
