<p><b>New page</b></p><div>== '''British Thermal Unit''' ==<br />
<br />
<br />
The British thermal unit (BTU or Btu) is a unit of energy. A BTU is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. Melting a pound of ice at 32 °F requires 143 BTU.<br />
<br />
One BTU is approximately:<br />
<br />
* The energy produced by burning one wooden match<br />
* 1,054—1,060 joules<br />
* 252—253 cal (calories, small)<br />
* 0.252—0.253 kcal (kilocalories)<br />
* 778—782 ft·lbf (foot-pounds-force)<br />
* 1 standard cubic foot of natural gas ≈ 1030 BTU</div>BetaB
