BTU/hr & kW = power
kW/hr & BTU = energy

Firstly, separate power and energy; this confuses many people.
Energy is Power x Time. A BTU is energy. Put it over one hour (energy x 1)
and we have "power"..... BTU/hr.


.... ...

- The watt (W) - Is a unit of "power".
A powers station takes energy, water, oil, or coal, burns the energy to make
power, which turns the generator which produces energy, which goes down a
cable to your house and turns an electric motor and produces power.



Oh dear, he's found a new website
