No device uses "kilowatts per hour". A watt or kilowatt is a unit of power, not of energy. That means that the "per hour" or "per second" is already implied - the watt refers to a "rate of energy conversion" - not to an amount of energy. If a devices uses a certain amount of kilowatts, it uses this amount all the time while it is on - whether it is kept on for a second or for several days.
watt (w) means joules per second. kW (kilowatts) means thousands of joules per second. Multiply that by 3600 to get the joules used per hour.
kW or kilowatts are power and not interchangeable with speed

To convert watts to kilowatts, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 500 watts is equal to 0.5 kilowatts. To convert minutes to hours, you divide by 60. So, 500 watts per minute is equivalent to 0.5 kilowatts per 60 minutes, or 0.5/60 = 0.00833 kilowatts per hour.
None. There is no such thing as a 'kilowatt per hour'. If, on the other hand, you are asking how many 'kilowatt hours' a flatscreen television uses, simply look at its nameplate to find its power rating in kilowatts (more likely, it's in watts, so you need to divide by 1000), and multiply it by 1 to find the number of kilowatt hours consumed over a period of one hour.

Kilowatts per hour is a unit of power. To calculate it, you simply divide the total number of kilowatts consumed by the total number of hours. This calculation is commonly used to measure electricity usage over time.
10000 BTU per hour is equivalent to approximately 2.93 kW.
One thousand kilowatts per megawatt.
There is no such thing as a "kilowatt per hour". Kilowatt is a unit of power, not of energy. A unit of energy is kilowatt-hour. That's kilowatt times hours, not "per" hour ("per" implies division, not multiplication). If a generator produces 10 kilowatts, that means it produces 10 kilowatt-hours every hour.
BTU and kilowatt-hours are measures of energy, while power is measured in either kilowatts or BTU per hour. 1 kilowatt-hour is equal to 3412 BTU, or 1 kilowatt equals 3412 BTU/hr. 8000 BTU per hour is equal to 2.344 kilowatts, which is 19.53 amps at 120 v.
