Examples

1

Consider that you have an electric car that consumes 5 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of energy for a full charge.
Convert this energy consumption from Kilowatt-hours to British Thermal Unit (BTU).

Answer

Given:

Energy in Kilowatt-hour = 5 kWh

Converting Energy from Kilowatt-hour to British Thermal Unit (BTU)...

The formula to convert from Kilowatt-hour to British Thermal Unit (BTU) is:

Energy(British Thermal Unit (BTU)) = Energy(Kilowatt-hour) × 3412.14163312794

Substitute given Energy(Kilowatt-hour) = 5 in the above formula.

Energy(British Thermal Unit (BTU)) = 5 × 3412.14163312794

Energy(British Thermal Unit (BTU)) = 17060.7082

Therefore, 5 kWh is equal to 17060.7082 BTU.

2

Consider that a residential solar panel system generates 2 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of energy in a day.
Convert this energy generation from kilowatt-hours to British Thermal Unit (BTU).

Answer

Given:

Energy in Kilowatt-hour = 2 kWh

Converting Energy from Kilowatt-hour to British Thermal Unit (BTU)...

The formula to convert from Kilowatt-hour to British Thermal Unit (BTU) is:

Energy(British Thermal Unit (BTU)) = Energy(Kilowatt-hour) × 3412.14163312794

Substitute given Energy(Kilowatt-hour) = 2 in the above formula.

Energy(British Thermal Unit (BTU)) = 2 × 3412.14163312794

Energy(British Thermal Unit (BTU)) = 6824.2833

Therefore, 2 kWh is equal to 6824.2833 BTU.

Kilowatt-hour

A Kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy that measures the amount of electrical energy consumed or generated over time. One kilowatt-hour is equivalent to one kilowatt (1,000 watts) of power used or produced for one hour. This unit is commonly used to quantify energy usage in households, industries, and various devices. For example, if a 1,000-watt appliance runs for one hour, it consumes 1 kWh of energy. Kilowatt-hours are essential for understanding energy consumption, billing in electric utilities, and managing energy efficiency.

British Thermal Unit (BTU)

The British Thermal Unit (BTU) is a unit of heat energy used in the United States and some other countries. One BTU is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. This unit is commonly used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to measure the heating and cooling capacity of equipment. It is also used in the context of power generation and fuel energy content, such as in natural gas, propane, and coal. The BTU is essential for understanding and managing energy transfer, consumption, and efficiency in various applications.
