A Watt is the unit of measurement for electrical power. It's the rate at which energy is used or generated. It is named after James Watt, a Scottish inventor and mechanical engineer. One Watt equates to one joule of energy per second. In electrical systems, power (Watts) is calculated ...
Watt is a SI unit of power equivalent to J/s (joule per second). LATEST VIDEOSBTU or British Thermal Unit is a part of US customary units. 1 BTU is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 lb of water by 1°F. In practice, when we talk about BTU, ...
higher power can make an automobile accelerate faster, make a reaction go faster, and so on. A Watt (W) is a unit of power. 1 J/s (Joule per second) = 1 W (Watt). Because the Watt is a small unit power of a device is rated in kW or BTU/hr. 1kW (KiloWatt) = 3414 BTU/...
Did you know that a university can expect to save 200,000 kilowatt-hours per year, or about $17,000 in energy bills, for every 1,000 university monitors? EnergyStar believes that this can be achieved by simply reducing the amount of energy computers use on a daily basis by using either...
I was very impressed by the use of solar hot water for domestic use in Australia in my too short work visit there nearly 25 years ago. I would like to have more of that in the States. I submit, that by the watt or joule, delivered to a home by a utility, centrally generated elect...
“Watching a child grow is seeing carbon dioxide in action. Plants turn CO2 into the food we eat to live and grow on. “You can’t live on air” is a common saying but that is just what we do; we live on air and water. Few people appreciate this amazing fact, that CO2 in the...
By Christopher Monckton of Brenchley Well, we sent out our paper On an error in defining temperature feedback to a leading journal for review. The reviewers did not like it at all. “And, gracious! How Lord Lundy cried!” We are persevering, though, for
1 Joule is the application of 1 Watt for 1 second So … one Watt/m2 applied for one year gives us 1 * 31.6E6 Joules/m2 per year. (Watts/m2 times seconds in 1 year.) To get total Joules for the planet, we need to multiply that answer by 5.1E14 square metres, to include the to...
The above represents the crux of my main objection to Dr. Frank’s paper. I have quoted his conclusions, and explained why I disagree. If he wishes to dispute my reasoning, I would request that he, in turn, quote what I have said above and why he disagrees with me. ...
in 2017 by “a comfortable margin”. But in fact, it is warmer by only 8 zettajoules … which is less than the claimed 2018 error. So no, that is not a “comfortable margin”. It’s well within even their unbelievably small claimed error, which they say is ± 9 zettajoule for ...
