  2. British thermal unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_thermal_unit

    The Btu should not be confused with the Board of Trade Unit (BTU), an obsolete UK synonym for kilowatt hour (1 kW⋅h or 3,412 Btu). The Btu is often used to express the conversion-efficiency of heat into electrical energy in power plants. Figures are quoted in terms of the quantity of heat in Btu required to generate 1 kW⋅h of electrical energy.

  3. Specific heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_heat_capacity

    The BTU was originally defined so that the average specific heat capacity of water would be 1 BTU/lb⋅°F. [19] Note the value's similarity to that of the calorie - 4187 J/kg⋅°C ≈ 4184 J/kg⋅°C (~.07%) - as they are essentially measuring the same energy, using water as a basis reference, scaled to their systems' respective lbs and °F ...

  4. Energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy

    The CGS energy unit is the erg and the imperial and US customary unit is the foot pound. Other energy units such as the electronvolt , food calorie or thermodynamic kcal (based on the temperature change of water in a heating process), and BTU are used in specific areas of science and commerce.

  5. Talk:British thermal unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:British_thermal_unit

    As of right now the unit conversion template gives different values for 1,000 British thermal units per pound (2,300 kJ/kg) and 1,000 British thermal units per pound (2,300 kJ/kg) while describing both units as "British Thermal Units". Is there some method to the madness or does the code need fixing?
