Answer:
With the exception of the USA power plant output is measured in Megawatt/hours (Mega=million)
1 MMBtu (million British thermal units) is equal to 293.071 watt-hours or 1.05435 gigajoules.
Million Metric British Thermal Units
4x1000MW coal-fired ultra-supercritical power plant at Yuhuan in China is supposed to be the world's bidgest coal power plant. Plant is located on the coast of East China's Zhejiang Province. The last (4th) unit of plant began commercial operation in November 2007. The plant run at about 45% thermal efficiency. Yuhuan Units are supposed to be the most cleanest, most efficient and most advanced ultra super critical units of today's world." Vivek Asthana Panki Thermal Power Station, Kanpur
Mbtu is an ambiguous reference to either one thousand or one million BTU's, British Thermal Units. In order to avoid confusion, Mbtu should not be used. The correct term would be MMBtu for million Btu's, or kBtu for thousand Btu's.
A joule is a watt-second. (To compare, a kilowatt-hour is 3.6 million joules.)If a typical power plant produces 1,000 megawatts, it is producing 1,000 megajoules per second.
A million British Thermal Units (mmBTU) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000,000 British Thermal Units (BTU). It is commonly used in the energy industry to express large quantities of energy, such as in natural gas markets.
The units for thermal conductivity are watts per meter-kelvin (W/mK).
1 kg of LPG is equivalent to approximately 0.0689 MMBtu (Million British Thermal Units).
BTUs (British Thermal Units).
Approximately 0.51 kilograms of LPG are equivalent to 1 MMbtu (million British thermal units).
It depends on what series of units you are using. There are calories, joules and British Thermal Units.
There are lots of different units for electricity, depending what aspect you want to measure (power, energy, current, voltage, frequency, etc.).For a power plant, some relevant units include: * Volt, for voltage * Ampere, for current * Watt, for power * Hertz, for frequency
