How many BTU old radiator puts out

Hello I did purchase Dan's book on E. D. R. but I have a radiator that I did not see listed in his book.
I need to determine how many BTU this radiator will deliver at 180* F water.
The cast iron radiator said Columbia on one end.
18" high
13" wide
5 tube
18 sections
Can anyone tell me about how many BTU this radiator will deliver?
Thanks for your help.

I'd use
the same output as many of the other 5-tube radiators - 48 square feet EDR x 170 BTU per square foor = 8,160 BTU's.8.33 lbs./gal. x 60 min./hr. x 20°ΔT = 10,000 BTU's/hour
Two btu per sq ft for degree difference for a slab0
