Frequently Asked Questions
Verified answers and formulas for converting btu per hour to tons of refrigeration.
There are 0.000083 tons of refrigeration (TR) in 1 btu per hour (BTU/h). Conversely, 1 ton of refrigeration equals 12000.000007 btu per hour.
To convert btu per hour (BTU/h) to tons of refrigeration (TR), use the formula: TR = BTU/h × 0.00008333333328. Multiply the btu per hour value by 0.00008333333328. For example, 10 BTU/h equals 0.0008 TR.
To convert in the reverse direction from tons of refrigeration (TR) to btu per hour (BTU/h), use the inverse formula: BTU/h = TR × 12000.00001. Multiply the ton of refrigeration value by 12000.00001 (1 TR = 12000.000007 BTU/h).
Both btu per hour and ton of refrigeration measure power. BTU per Hour (BTU/h) is a unit in the Power measurement category. It is widely used in btu per hour (heating / cooling). Relative to the power base unit, 1 BTU/h equals 0.293071 Watts (W). Ton of Refrigeration (TR) is a unit in the Power measurement category. It is widely used in 12,000 btu/h (ac & heat pump cooling). Relative to the power base unit, 1 TR equals 3516.852842 Watts (W).
