Formula
Ton of refrigeration (TR) measures power, while Microjoule (uJ) measures energy. These are different physical quantities, so there is no single multiplication factor that converts one into the other.
TR relates to its own power base unit by a factor of 3516.85. uJ relates to its own energy base unit by a factor of 1e-06.

Frequently asked questions
Can Ton of refrigeration be converted to Microjoule?
Not directly. Ton of refrigeration measures power and Microjoule measures energy. Converting between different physical quantities needs an extra physical relationship (such as area, distance, or time), not just a unit ratio.
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.
What is Microjoule used for?
The Microjoule (uJ) is a unit of energy. Microjoule is 0.000001 joule units.
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 Ton of refrigeration and Microjoule don't, the tool flags them as not directly compatible rather than returning a meaningless number.
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.
What should I convert Microjoule to instead?
Use another energy unit, such as one of the related Microjoule conversions linked below.

About this conversion
This page compares Ton of refrigeration (TR) and Microjoule (uJ) within the engineering converter.
Cooling power equal to 12,000 BTU/h. Microjoule is 0.000001 joule units.
Because Ton of refrigeration measures power and Microjoule measures energy, 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.
