Foot-Pound
A foot-pound is a unit of energy or work equal to the work done when a force of one pound-force is exerted over a distance of one foot.
History/Origin
The foot-pound has been used primarily in the United States and the United Kingdom as a customary unit of energy, originating from imperial and US customary measurement systems, before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, the foot-pound is still used in certain fields such as engineering, automotive, and aerospace industries in the US for expressing torque and energy, although the SI unit joule is more common internationally.
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.
