Most people will tell you that ICT is a shortening for âinformation and communications technologyâ â option number one above. Letâs unpack that phrase. So it is âinformation technologyâ or âcommunications technologyâ. It is not âinformationâ or âcommunicationâ standing on its own. âInformationâ or âcommunicationâ has to go with technology â they cannot exist independently. You could shorten information and communications technology to just technology. Option 2
For example, a 24 ft. x 24 ft. garage with an eight-foot ceiling has a volume of 4608 ft.3 (24 * 24 * 8 = 4608) Final Formula. Once you have all the data assembled, multiply them together and divide by 1.6 to find the number of BTUs required to heat your garage. (Insulation * Volume * Temp. Rise)/1.6 = BTU. For example, if your garage was 4608 ft. 3 in volume, your temperature rise was 20Â°F, and your insulation rating was one, it would be: (1 * 4608 * 20)/1.6 = 57,600 BTU
BTU Calculator & BTU Formulas. A BTU is an abbreviation for British Thermal Unit, which is the amount of energy required to raise 1 pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit at sea level. A BTU is a relatively small amount of energy... about equivalent to the heat generated by striking 1 stick match. You can calculate BTU heating or cooling requirements for your process by understanding your application. Some common BTU calculating formulas are shown below. Weighed Water Test: Measure the flow of water through your process by timing how long it takes to fill a known volumne container. For example, allow your process water to fill a 5-gallon container.
