How do you convert cubic feet to Btu per hour?

How do you convert cubic feet to Btu per hour?

Multiply the flow rate in cubic feet of fuel per hour by the amount of heat produced by 1 cubic foot of fuel. Continuing the example, assume the flow rate of propane was 15 cubic feet per hour. The number of Btu produced per hour is 2,500 Btu / cubic foot of propane x 15 cubic feet / hour = 37,500 Btu per hour.

How do I convert cubic feet of natural gas to BTU?

Common Energy Equivalents: Natural gas: 1 cu ft of natural gas = 1,030 Btu. 1 CCF = 100 cu ft = 1 therm = 103,000 Btu.

How many Btu are in a cubic foot?

A cubic foot of natural gas has 1,015 BTUs. This compares to a gallon of propane that contains 91,700 BTUs and 1 kW of electricity that contains 3,413 BTUs.

Is cubic feet per hour the same as BTU?

To convert from BTUs to cubic feet per hour divide BTU/1100 (example: 50,000 BTU by 1100 = 45.5 cubic feet of gas per hour). To get BTU from cubic feet, multiply cubic x feet 1100 (45.5 cubic feet x 1100 = 50,000 BTU.)

What does ft3 HR mean?

Cubic Feet per Hour (ft3/hr) Gallons per Hour (GPH)

What does BTU ft3 mean?

British thermal unit per cubic foot
Btu/ft3 means British thermal unit per cubic foot, a measurement of thermal energy contained per unit volume (i.e., per cubic foot of Biogas or natural gas).

What is the Btu of natural gas?

1,037 Btu
Sample Btu conversion factors

Energy source/fuel Physical units and Btu1
Natural gas 1 cubic foot = 1,037 Btu 1 therm = 100,000 Btu
Motor gasoline 1 gallon = 120,286 Btu2
Diesel fuel 1 gallon = 137,381 Btu3
Heating oil 1 gallon = 138,500 Btu4

How do you convert Btu hr to CFH?

Divide the energy transfer rate in BTUs per hour by 100,000, which is the number of BTUs in a therm. For instance, if you are converting a rate of 500,000 BTUs per hour: 500,000 ÷ 100,000 = 5 therms/hr. Multiply this answer by 96.7, which is the volume of a therm of natural gas: 5 × 96.7 = 483.5 ft³/hr.
