Gas Pressure to BTU Calculator

Calculate BTU from Gas Pressure





Formula

The formula to calculate the BTU for a given gas pressure, gas flow rate, and heating value is:

\[ \text{BTU} = P \times F \times H \]

What is Gas Pressure To BTU?

Gas pressure to BTU conversion is a method used to determine the amount of energy produced by a gas flow at a specific pressure. This is particularly useful in applications such as heating systems, where understanding the energy output is crucial for efficiency and safety. The BTU (British Thermal Unit) is a unit of heat that is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. By knowing the gas pressure, flow rate, and heating value, one can calculate the total energy output in BTUs.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the BTU:

\[ \text{BTU} = 10 \times 100 \times 1000 = 1,000,000 \text{ BTU} \]

The total energy output is 1,000,000 BTU.
