About Converting Hectowatts to Ton of refrigerations
Hectowatt and Ton of refrigeration both describe power output, and the conversion is a routine part of comparing an engine or motor's spec sheet across countries that use different power units. Specifically: Hectowatt is 100 watt units, and cooling power equal to 12,000 BTU/h.
Formula
ton of refrigerations = hectowatts × 0.0284345136094
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 hectowatt equals 100 base units, and 1 ton of refrigeration equals 3516.85284207 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct hectowatt-to-ton of refrigeration factor of 0.0284345136094.
Simple example
1 hW × 0.02843451361 = 0.0284345136 TR
1 hectowatt = 0.0284345136 ton of refrigerations.
Real-world example
100 hW × 0.02843451361 = 2.843451361 TR
100 hectowatts = 2.843451361 ton of refrigerations.
