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.
Milliwatt
A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt, used to measure small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The milliwatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a convenient unit for measuring low power levels, especially in electronics and telecommunications, with its usage expanding alongside the adoption of the watt as the standard power unit.
Current Use
Milliwatts are commonly used today in electronics, audio equipment, and wireless communication devices to specify power levels, such as in battery-powered devices, LED brightness, and signal transmission power.
