<p class="MsoNormal">My PS-F reports for fuel use is in Gallons with peak demand in Gallons/Minute.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My PS-E reports for fuel use is in MBTU with peak demand in MBTU/Hr.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The dropdown menus in the LEED online forms don’t give you the option to input fuel capacities in Gallons or MBTU. Hence my confusion.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
For LEED online <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My units of energy = kbtu<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My units of demand = MBH<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">SO the conversions need to be done as follows for entry to leed online…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">fuel use: <b>5893.5 MBTU – kbtu</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The conversion for demand: <b>2.0 MBTU/HR – MBH</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At first I thought <b>1 MBTU = 1 million BTU’s ??</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But looking at my summary reports I see the MBTU fuel use at 5.8935 on the graph, then it sais:
<b>(x000,000,000)</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This implies that 1 MBTU = 1 Billion BTU’s but I’m not sure if this is correct?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Plus, my brain hurts.<o:p></o:p></p>
