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.

Kilo BTU

A kiloBritish Thermal Unit (kBTU) is a unit of heat energy equal to 1,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs). One kBTU represents the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1,000 pounds of water by one degree Fahrenheit. This unit is commonly used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry to quantify the heating and cooling capacities of larger systems and equipment. It is also used in energy management and building energy performance assessments to evaluate and compare the energy usage and efficiency of different systems and buildings.
