How many btu's in a 7500 watt heater?

btu = 7500 watts * 3.14 btu / watt = 23,550 btus / hr


How many BTU in 400Watt hours?

To convert 400 Watt hours to BTU, you need to multiply by 3.412 to get the energy in BTU. So, 400 Watt hours is equivalent to approximately 1364.8 BTU.

What is the relation between Watts and BTUs?

There is no direct relationship between the two units, as they measure different quantities. The watt is the SI unit for power, whereas the BTU (British Thermal Unit) is an Imperial unit for energy.You should really be asking, 'What is the relationship between the watt and the BTU per hour (or per minute, or per second)?'


How many watts in 12000 BTU?

To convert a watt to BTUs, the factor is 1 kilowatt of power = 3412.1416 BTU/hr 3.412 BTUs equal a watt. 1200 watt = 4094.4 BTUS you will need to remove about 4100 BTU/hr


Btu per kw?

The BTU is an Imperial unit of measurement for energy. The watt is the SI unit for power. The BTU and watt measures different quantities, so there are no 'BTUs per kilowatt'!


How much btu equals 1 watts?

Since 1KW-H (kilowatt-hour) = 1000 Watt-Hours =3413 BTU Then 1 watt-Hr = 3413 BTU divided by 1000 = 3.413 BTU So... bottom line is 1 watt-hour is equal to 3.413 BTU Note: For Reference: 1 BTU is the amount of energy required to raise (or lower) 1 (one) pound of water 1 (one) degree Fahrenheit.


How many watts per hour to equal 1000 btu's?

The energy unit is not watts per hour, but watts times hour, simply called watt-hours.One BTU is equal to about 1055 Joules or Watt-seconds; that is about 0.293 watt-hours. Actually there are different definitions of the BTU.The energy unit is not watts per hour, but watts times hour, simply called watt-hours.One BTU is equal to about 1055 Joules or Watt-seconds; that is about 0.293 watt-hours.

How many btu 1watt?

1 watt is equal to approximately 3.41 BTU (British Thermal Units).


How many BTU does a 10 watt led bulb create?

About 90 percent of an incandescent bulb's energy is turned into heat; one watt is 3.41 btu/hr, so 10 watts would be about 3 btu per hour.


What is the Watt to btu conversion?

1 Watt is approximately equal to 3.412 BTUs per hour.


Convert watts to BTU per hour?

The conversion is not direct, since watts are units of power, while BTU/Hr represents energy per hour of equipment operation. So, in this case, watts will represent the power dissipation of a product. 1 watt = 3.412141633 BTU/Hr It works both ways, of course: 1 BTU/Hr = 0.29307107 watts The above is mathematically correct, but I think how it represents the time value is confusing. I've left it for reference purposes. A Watt is an instantaneous measure of power. It assumes no unit of time. A Watt-Second on the other hand, is 1 Watt of power for 1 Second, which *is* a unit of energy. 1 Watt-Second is equivalent to 1 Joule. A 60 watt lightbulb turned on for exactly 1 second uses 60 Watt-seconds or 60 joules of energy. BTU on the other hand, is a measure of energy and time is implicit in the unit. 1 BTU is equivalent to approx 1055 Joules. 1 Watt-Second = ~0.00095 BTU. A 1000 Watt heater, running for 1 hour(3600 seconds) would consume 1KiloWatt-Hour(KWH) of energy. Or 3,600,000 Joules. 1KiloWatt-Hour = 3412 BTU. OR 1Watt-Hour = 3.412 BTU While you could divide both sides by Hours and get a comparison of power wherein 1W = 3.412 BTU/hr. I think comparing energy in the forms of KWHs and BTUs is more useful than the other way around.
