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
A standard unit of measurement used to denote both the amount of heat energy in fuels and the ability of appliances and air conditioning systems to produce heating or cooling. A BTU is the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a pint of water (which weighs exactly 16 ounces) by one degree Fahrenheit. Since BTUs are measurements of energy consumption, they can be converted directly to kilowatt-hours (3412 BTUs = 1 kWh) or joules (1 BTU = 1,055.06 joules).
