What is the relationship between BTU and Watts?
A watt is approximately 3.412 BTU/hr. 2000 watts is about 6824 BTU/hr. Cooling / Heating Capacity. watts x 3.412 = BTU/hr BTU/hr x 0.2931 = watts Tons of Refrigeration x 12000 = BTU/hr Tons of Refrigeration x 3516.8 = watts kcal/h x 1.163 = watt Some examples: 9000BTU IS 2.6kw 12000BTU IS 3.5kw 15000BTU IS 4.3kw 17000BTU IS 4.98kw 18000BTU IS 5.2kw 19000BTU IS 5.5kw 24000BTU IS 7.0kw 27000BTU IS 7.9kw 32000BTU IS 9.3kw 36000BTU IS 10.5kw Pressure. psig x 6.8948 = kPa psig x 0.069 = bar bar x 14.5 = psi bar x 100 = kPa kPa x 0.01 = bar Temperature. Length C = 5/9 (F – 32) F = (9/5 x C) + 32 Length. metres x 3.281 = feet meters x 39.37 = inches Cooling and Heating conversion Where HP = Horse Power and kW = kilowatt. 1 HP = 2.55kW 1.5 HP = 3.5 kW 2 HP = 5.1 kW 2.5 HP = 6 kW 3 HP = 7 kW 4 HP = 8 kW 5 HP = 12 kW 6 HP = 14 kW 8 HP = 16 kW 9 HP = 21 kW Inverter Technology This technology, instead of using alternating current (AC) motors, uses direct current (DC) motors, which have superior pe
