About Converting Decawatts to BTU per hour
Decawatt and BTU per hour both describe power output, and the conversion is a routine part of comparing an engine or motor's spec sheet across countries that use different power units. Specifically: Decawatt is 10 watt units, and power rate using BTU per hour.
Formula
btu per hour = decawatts × 34.1214163313
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 decawatt equals 10 base units, and 1 btu per hour equals 0.293071070172 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct decawatt-to-btu per hour factor of 34.1214163313.
Simple example
1 daW × 34.12141633 = 34.12141633 BTU/h
1 decawatt = 34.12141633 btu per hour.
Real-world example
100 daW × 34.12141633 = 3,412.141633 BTU/h
100 decawatts = 3,412.141633 btu per hour.
