Scott:
Heat output from electronic products can be calculated using
the formula:
btu / hour = Watts * 0.29307
Also, you can check out the following website for other useful
conversion factors:

Subject: Heat Calculation
Hello,
Does anyone know how to compute heat dissipation for a product
given mains power input (volts, amps, watts)?
Our spec sheets always list heat dissipation (e.g. 1,000
BTU/hour) for each product and I wonder where the number comes
from and why it never changes from one product to the next.
Thanks for any comments received.
Scott
