Some price Gas at US$ per MBTU, some Rs. Cubic Meter. What is the Ratio? How much it comes to Rs. per Litre...US$ per Lite. How many Litres are there in 1 MBTU and Litres in Cu Meter
1 MBTU can produce approximately 293 Units (KWh) of energy. However we may have to take into account the efficiency factor into consideration while converting to equivalent electrical energy for finacial calculations.
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). A wooden kitchen match produce approximately 1 BTU, and air conditioners for household use typically produce between 5,000 and 15,000 BTU.
MBTU stands for one million BTUs, which can also be expressed as one decatherm (10 therms). MBTU is occasionally used as a standard unit of measurement for natural gas and provides a convenient basis for comparing the energy content of various grades of natural gas and other fuels.
One cubic foot of natural gas produces approximately 1,000 BTUs, so 1,000 cu.ft. of gas is comparable to 1 MBTU. MBTU is occasionally expressed as MMBTU, which is intended to represent a thousand thousand BTUs.
1 MBTU = 1000 Cubic Ft.
Hope you will be able to covert Cu Ft to sm3. Litre is used to express liquid volme not gas.
