The formula to calculate the Cost Per BTU (CBTU) is:
\[ CBTU = \frac{TC}{E} \]
Where:
Let's say the total cost (\( TC \)) is $100 and the total energy (\( E \)) is 5000 BTU. Using the formula:
\[ CBTU = \frac{100}{5000} \]
We get:
\[ CBTU = 0.02 $/BTU \]
So, the Cost Per BTU (\( CBTU \)) is $0.02 per BTU.
A cost per BTU is a metric describing the cost per one unit of energy, which in this case, is British Thermal Units (BTU). It helps in understanding the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of energy usage.
Formula: \( \text{BTU} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height} \times 4.5 \)
Example: \( \text{BTU} = 20 \times 15 \times 10 \times 4.5 \)
Formula: \( \text{Cost per Million BTU} = \frac{\text{Fuel Cost}}{\text{Energy Content}} \times 1,000,000 \)
Example: \( \text{Cost per Million BTU} = \frac{3.50}{100,000} \times 1,000,000 \)
Formula: \( \text{BTU per Hour} = \text{Watts} \times 3.412142 \)
Example: \( \text{BTU per Hour} = 500 \times 3.412142 \)
Formula: \( \text{BTU} = \text{Area} \times \text{Height} \times \text{Temperature Difference} \times 0.135 \)
Example: \( \text{BTU} = 2000 \times 8 \times 30 \times 0.135 \)
