Formula
Hectopascal (hPa) measures pressure and mechanical stress, while Ton of refrigeration (TR) measures power. These are different physical quantities, so there is no single multiplication factor that converts one into the other.
hPa relates to its own pressure and mechanical stress base unit by a factor of 100. TR relates to its own power base unit by a factor of 3516.85.
Conversion table
| Hectopascal (hPa) | 100 × pressure and mechanical stress base unit |
| Ton of refrigeration (TR) | 3516.85 × power base unit |

Frequently asked questions
Can Hectopascal be converted to Ton of refrigeration?
Not directly. Hectopascal measures pressure and mechanical stress and Ton of refrigeration measures power. Converting between different physical quantities needs an extra physical relationship (such as area, distance, or time), not just a unit ratio.
What is Hectopascal used for?
The Hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure and mechanical stress. Hectopascal is 100 pascal units.
What is Ton of refrigeration used for?
The Ton of refrigeration (TR) is a unit of power. Cooling power equal to 12,000 BTU/h.
Why does the converter show an incompatible units message?
The Universal Converter only calculates a numeric result when both units share the same physical dimension. Since Hectopascal and Ton of refrigeration don't, the tool flags them as not directly compatible rather than returning a meaningless number.
What should I convert Hectopascal to instead?
Use another pressure and mechanical stress unit, such as one of the related Hectopascal conversions linked below.
What should I convert Ton of refrigeration to instead?
Use another power unit, such as one of the related Ton of refrigeration conversions linked below.

About this conversion
This page compares Hectopascal (hPa) and Ton of refrigeration (TR) within the engineering converter.
Hectopascal is 100 pascal units. Cooling power equal to 12,000 BTU/h.
Because Hectopascal measures pressure and mechanical stress and Ton of refrigeration measures power, the two units are not directly convertible: there is no fixed ratio that turns one into the other without additional information.
The calculator above will report that these units are not compatible. For a working result, choose two units from the same measurement family — see the related conversions below.
