Unit Description

Deciwatt (dW)

Definition

A deciwatt (dW) is a unit of power equal to one tenth of a watt (0.1 W). It represents very small power levels typically found in low-power electronic devices, sensors, and precision instruments.

History

The deciwatt developed as part of the metric system's decimal structure, providing a convenient unit for small power measurements. It became useful for describing power consumption of low-power electronic devices and precision instruments.

Current Use

Deciwatts are used for low-power electronic devices, sensor specifications, and precision instruments. They're found in specifications for small sensors, low-power circuits, and electronic devices requiring minimal power consumption.

BTU per Hour (BTU/hr)

Definition

BTU per hour (BTU/h) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one British Thermal Unit per hour. It's widely used in HVAC applications and provides a practical scale for heating and cooling system ratings.

History

BTU per hour became the standard power unit for HVAC systems and thermal equipment. It provided an appropriate scale for heating and cooling applications, becoming universally adopted in the HVAC industry and building energy systems.

Current Use

BTU per hour is extensively used in HVAC systems, heating and cooling equipment ratings, building energy calculations, and thermal system specifications. It's standard for furnace ratings, air conditioner capacity, and building thermal load calculations.

Conversion Examples

Convert 1 Deciwatt to BTU per Hour

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.341214 BTU/hr
  2. Conversion Formula: BTU/hr = dW ÷ 2.93071
  3. Calculation: 1 dW ÷ 2.93071 = 0.341214 BTU/hr

Convert 10 Deciwatt to BTU per Hour

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.341214 BTU/hr
  2. Conversion Formula: BTU/hr = dW ÷ 2.93071
  3. Calculation: 10 dW ÷ 2.93071 = 3.41214 BTU/hr

Convert 100 Deciwatt to BTU per Hour

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.341214 BTU/hr
  2. Conversion Formula: BTU/hr = dW ÷ 2.93071
  3. Calculation: 100 dW ÷ 2.93071 = 34.1214 BTU/hr

Convert 1,000 Deciwatt to BTU per Hour

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 dW = 0.341214 BTU/hr
  2. Conversion Formula: BTU/hr = dW ÷ 2.93071
  3. Calculation: 1,000 dW ÷ 2.93071 = 341.214 BTU/hr
