Convert erg to ton-hour (refrigeration)
Please provide values below to convert erg [erg] to ton-hour (refrigeration) [ton*h], or Convert ton-hour (refrigeration) to erg.
1 erg = 7.8985e-15 ton*h. To convert erg to ton-hour (refrigeration), multiply the value by 7.8985e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ton*h = 1.2661e+14 erg). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 erg = 7.8985e-15 ton*h
- 1 ton*h = 1.2661e+14 erg
- 10 erg = 7.8985e-14 ton*h
- 100 erg = 7.8985e-13 ton*h
How to Convert Erg to Ton-Hour (Refrigeration)
1 erg = 7.89847602222511e-15 ton*h
Example: convert 15 erg to ton*h:
15 erg = 15 × 7.89847602222511e-15 ton*h = 1.18477140333377e-13 ton*h

Erg
The erg is a unit of energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, defined as the amount of work done when a force of one dyne displaces an object by one centimeter.
History/Origin
The erg was introduced in the late 19th century as part of the CGS system of units, primarily used in physics to measure small amounts of energy before the adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, the erg is largely obsolete and rarely used outside of specific scientific contexts, with the SI unit joule being the standard for energy measurement. It remains relevant in some fields like astrophysics and theoretical physics.
Ton-Hour (Refrigeration)
A ton-hour (ton*h) is a unit of energy representing the amount of cooling provided by one ton of refrigeration over one hour.
History/Origin
The ton-hour originated from the refrigeration industry, where the 'ton' is a unit of cooling capacity, and the hour indicates the duration. It has been used historically to quantify cooling energy consumption and capacity.
Current Use
Today, the ton-hour is used in HVAC and refrigeration systems to measure cooling energy consumption, system capacity, and performance over specific periods.
