Convert ton (refrigeration) to kilocalorie (th)/second
Please provide values below to convert ton (refrigeration) [ton] to kilocalorie (th)/second [kcal(th)/s], or Convert kilocalorie (th)/second to ton (refrigeration).
1 ton = 0.840548001912 kcal(th)/s. To convert ton (refrigeration) to kilocalorie (th)/second, multiply the value by 0.840548001912; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal(th)/s = 1.18970005012 ton). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Ton (Refrigeration)
A refrigeration ton is a unit of power used to describe the cooling capacity of air conditioning and refrigeration systems, equivalent to the heat removal of one ton of ice melting in 24 hours.
History/Origin
The refrigeration ton originated in the early 20th century as a practical measure for cooling capacity, based on the amount of heat required to melt one ton of ice over a 24-hour period, approximately 12,000 BTU per hour.
Current Use
It is primarily used in HVAC and refrigeration industries to specify the cooling capacity of air conditioning units and chillers, with 1 refrigeration ton equal to 12,000 BTU/h or approximately 3.517 kilowatts.
Kilocalorie (Th)/second
A kilocalorie (th)/second (kcal(th)/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per second is transferred or converted.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie (th) is a traditional unit of energy used primarily in nutrition and thermodynamics, with 'th' indicating the thermochemical definition. Its use in power measurements, such as kcal(th)/s, is less common and primarily for specialized scientific contexts.
Current Use
The unit kcal(th)/s is rarely used in modern practice; power is more commonly expressed in watts. When used, it typically appears in scientific research involving energy transfer rates in thermochemical processes or specialized engineering applications.
