Mbh
MBH (Thousand British Thermal Units per Hour) is a unit of power used to measure the heat output of heating and cooling systems, equivalent to 1,000 BTU per hour.
History/Origin
The MBH unit originated in the HVAC industry as a practical way to quantify large heating and cooling capacities, especially in commercial applications, aligning with the British thermal unit (BTU) system used in the United States.
Current Use
Today, MBH is commonly used in the HVAC industry to specify the capacity of boilers, furnaces, and air conditioning units, facilitating standardized communication of heating and cooling power in commercial and industrial settings.
Calorie (Th)/minute
A calorie (th)/minute is a unit of power representing the amount of heat energy in calories (thermochemical) transferred or used per minute.
History/Origin
The calorie (th)/minute has been used historically in thermodynamics and nutrition to quantify heat transfer rates, especially before the adoption of the watt as the standard SI unit of power.
Current Use
Today, the calorie (th)/minute is rarely used in scientific contexts, having been largely replaced by the watt; however, it may still appear in specialized fields or legacy data related to heat transfer and energy consumption.
