What does Btu (IT) represent?

Btu (IT) is a British thermal unit defined by the International Steam Tables, measuring energy in thermodynamic and engineering contexts.

Why convert Btu (IT) to fuel oil equivalent @kiloliter?

Converting allows energy measured in heat units to be expressed as the energy equivalent of a volumetric fuel amount, facilitating comparisons and reporting.

Can this conversion be used for all types of fuel oils?

The conversion is based on a standard reference fuel oil; variations in fuel composition may influence the accuracy of the equivalence.
