What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms values from Btu (th)/pound—a mass-specific energy unit measuring heating value per pound of fuel—to gram/calorie (th), which indicates the mass of fuel consumed per thermochemical calorie. It aids in evaluating fuel efficiency and comparing energy content across different scales.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in Btu (th)/pound that you wish to convert.
  • Select Btu (th)/pound as the input unit and gram/calorie (th) as the output unit.
  • Submit the input to obtain the converted value in gram/calorie (th).

Key Features

  • Converts fuel efficiency values between Btu (th)/pound and gram/calorie (th).
  • Supports assessment of fuel heating values and energy content on a mass basis.
  • Browser-based and easy to use for engineers and fuel analysts.

Examples

  • 5 Btu (th)/pound is converted to 9 gram/calorie (th).
  • 0.5 Btu (th)/pound corresponds to 0.9 gram/calorie (th).

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying heating values of fuels like coal, fuel oil, and biomass for quality control.
  • Sizing boilers and combustion systems by calculating fuel mass flow from energy requirements.
  • Comparing mass efficiency of fuels for energy production and emissions modeling.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure fuel energy content is well-characterized for reliable conversion.
  • Use standardized thermochemical units to maintain consistency in calculations.
  • Leverage conversions to inform procurement and engineering design decisions.

Limitations

  • Conversion assumes thermochemical definitions of Btu and calorie; differing standards may impact results.
  • Less reliable for fuels with heterogeneous or variable energy content.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Btu (th)/pound measure?
It measures the specific energy or heating value of fuel per pound based on the thermochemical British thermal unit.

What is gram/calorie (th) used for?
It indicates the mass of fuel consumed per thermochemical calorie of energy produced, useful in assessing fuel mass efficiency.

Why convert between these units?
Conversion helps compare and evaluate fuel efficiency and design combustion systems using different energy and mass-based metrics.

Key Terminology

Btu (th)/pound
A unit measuring thermochemical British thermal units per pound of fuel, indicating specific energy content.
Gram/calorie (th)
A unit expressing the mass of fuel consumed per thermochemical calorie of energy produced.
Thermochemical calorie (cal_th)
A calorie defined as 4.184 joules used for standardized energy accounting in thermochemical measurements.
