Greetings everyone!
I have a hard time converting pressure to energy. Is there a way to convert in simple manner? Say, 3200 KPa to be converted to Btu/Hr.
I appreciate much if you could share me a simple formula that I could use in my work.
Have a nice day!

The reason you're having trouble is that pressure and energy are different. They can't be converted directly.

Many thanks Sir!
What shall I need then or what data shall I need to know how much energy (BTU/Hr) is exerted by an A/C condenser having a working pressure of 3200 KPa?

Again, I don't think it's possible to say. Pressure and Energy are fundamentally different quantities.

There should be a tag, nameplate, on the machine that would tell you the requested information
