"I think it's just under 11 (10.86), my gas bill currently shows 1843.52 m3 which is converted to 19991.kWh It is 10.83KWh/m3." According to http://www.ukenergy.co.uk/pages/gas-kwh.html ..... Multiply m3 by a correction factor of 1.022640 and then by the calorific value shown on your last gas bill (39.1 for me). Finally divide the result by 3.6 to give kWh.
102,000 BTU = 1 ccf
The answer to this depends on the cost of natural gas. In my area, natural gas is about $11 US per 1000 Cubic Feet or basically 1.1 cents per cubic foot. At the same time, electricity in my area is 10.9 cents per kilowatt hour. Neither of these costs include taxes and customer charges so the actual cost is actually higher. To answer the question though, one kilowatt is the equivalent of 3416 Btu. One cubic foot of natural gas has 1030 Btu per cubic foot. So we need 3416/1030 or 3.3 cubic feet of natural gas. At 1.1 cents per cubic foot that is 3.63 cents of natural gas. Now if you were using these to heat water, an electric heating element transfers about 98% of it's energy to the water. A natural gas heater only transfers about 65% of it's energy to the water while the rest goes out the flue pipe. So the 1 kilowatt of electricity transfers 3348 Btu to the water. To get the same heating with natural gas would require 3348/.65 or 5150 Btu of natural gas. So 5150/1030 is 5 cubic feet or 5.5 cents of natural gas. Still considerably cheaper than using electricity in my area.
A cubic meter is a unit of volume, specifically 1,000 litres.Litres per minute is a unit of flow.Units of volume and units of flow do not correlate without some factor of time. The question is invalid. Please restate the question.
You need to know the energy content of the natural gas which may vary from one supplier to another, the supplier will tell you this, it will be in some unit like kilojoules per cubic meter or cubic foot. Then with the engine running at a steady output, over a period of an hour or preferably more, measure accurately the amount of gas consumed, and from that calculate the energy content of the gas. At the same time measure the kilowatts of electrical output over the same period. If it is varying slightly measure it at intervals and take an average. The energy output is then this figure of kilowatts times the number of seconds elapsed, the result then being in kilojoules, and you can compare this with the energy input over the same period to get an efficiency ratio.
Oil has the higher BTU rating Depends. If it is Liquified Nat. Gas then it has the higher rating.
On average, natural gas contains about 38-42 megajoules (MJ) of energy per cubic meter. This is equivalent to 38,000-42,000 kilojoules (kJ) per cubic meter.
Natural gas has around 34,000 kilojoules (around 8,120 calories) per cubic meter.
1 standard cubic meter of natural gas is equivalent to approximately 0.74 cubic meters of liquefied natural gas (LNG) when considering the differences in volume due to the liquefaction process.
One cubic meter of compressed natural gas (CNG) typically contains between 9000 to 11000 BTUs (British Thermal Units) of energy.
Each cubic meter comprises 1,000 liters. Therefore, cubic meters x 1,000 = liters.
To calculate the volume of natural gas in standard cubic meter at standard pressure, you can use the ideal gas law equation: V = nRT/P, where V is the volume in standard cubic meters, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the ideal gas constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin, and P is the standard pressure. Given that standard pressure is typically defined as 1 atmosphere or 101.325 kPa, you can plug in these values along with the temperature and number of moles of gas to calculate the volume of natural gas in standard cubic meter at standard pressure.

The density of natural gas can vary depending on its composition, but on average, 1 standard cubic meter (scm) of natural gas is equivalent to around 0.75 kg.
The amount of electricity produced from 1 cubic meter of natural gas can vary depending on the efficiency of the power plant and the type of technology used. On average, 1 cubic meter of natural gas can generate around 10-12 kilowatt-hours of electricity.
1 cubic meter of bio-gas is equivalent to 1000 liters.
On average, 1 cubic meter of compressed natural gas (CNG) weighs approximately 0.67 kilograms. The weight can vary slightly based on the density and pressure at which the CNG is stored.
