Convert therm to ton-hour (refrigeration)
Please provide values below to convert therm [thm] to ton-hour (refrigeration) [ton*h], or Convert ton-hour (refrigeration) to therm.
1 thm = 8.3333345181 ton*h. To convert therm to ton-hour (refrigeration), multiply the value by 8.3333345181; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ton*h = 0.119999982939 thm). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 thm = 8.3333345181 ton*h
- 1 ton*h = 0.119999982939 thm
- 10 thm = 83.333345181 ton*h
- 100 thm = 833.33345181 ton*h
How to Convert Therm to Ton-Hour (Refrigeration)
1 thm = 8.33333451810474 ton*h
Example: convert 15 thm to ton*h:
15 thm = 15 × 8.33333451810474 ton*h = 125.000017771571 ton*h

Therm
A therm is a unit of energy used primarily to measure natural gas consumption, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm was introduced in the early 20th century by the American Gas Association to standardize natural gas billing and measurement; it became widely adopted in North America for energy calculations.
Current Use
Today, the therm is still used in the natural gas industry for billing and energy measurement, although other units like gigajoules and cubic meters are also common globally.
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.
