In order to quickly judge one radiator from another, you need to have a way to accurately compare them. BTU rating is how we, and you, compare a radiator's heat outputs. But the problem is that the way you Calculate which matters because the temperature of the boiler supplying it affects the final BTU result. This means that manufacturers and shops (like us) all have to use the same assumed boiler temperature when calculating the output of a radiator so that it has real meaning.
It would just be SILLY if there were multiple points of reference for boiler temperatures, right? Well, the problem is that there are 2 different assumed temperatures used: Delta 50 and Delta 60.
Delta T rating is calculated using the flow temperature of a boiler into a radiator plus the flow out temperature. So, if you have an input of 80 degrees and an output of 60 degrees, then this means that the average radiator temperature would be 70 degrees.
'Room Temperature' is an average accepted to be 20 degrees. So, you take that away and you're left with 50 degrees, or Delta T50.
The conversion are as follows:
If a radiator has a heat output of 5000 BTU at ΔT=60, to find the heat output at ΔT=50, you simply multiply the BTU by 0.789.
So your equation would look like this:
BTU (ΔT=50) = BTU (ΔT=60) * 0.789 = 3945 BTU
If you have a radiators with a heat output of 5000 BTU at ΔT=60, to find the heat output at ΔT=70, you multiply the BTU by 1.223.
So your equation is:
BTU (ΔT=70) = BTU (ΔT=60) * 1.223 = 6115 BTU
If you have a radiator with a heat output of 4200 BTU at ΔT=50, to find the heat output at ΔT=60, you need to multiply the BTU by 1.264.
So your equation this time is:
BTU (ΔT=60) = BTU (ΔT=50) * 1.264 = 5309 BTU
