The latent heat of fusion for ice is 144 BTU/lb. For one ton, that is 2000 lb x 144 BTU/lb, or 288,000 BTU. Refrigeration's roots are in the ice making industry, and the ice guys wanted to convert this into ice production. If 288,000 BTU are required to make one ton of ice, divide this by 24 hours to get 12,000 BTU/Hr required to make one ton of ice in one day.

How many btu in one cubic meter?
Btu and cubic meter are two different measuring units. Btu is the unit for heat transmission, like in ac units 12000 btu/hr. It means this ac unit would remove 12000 btu of heat from the room in one hour. where as cubic meter is the unit for volume.
Can temperature be converted to BTU energy?
Temperature IS BTU, BTU is: British Thermal Unit, I believe the formula is this: How long it takes one pound of ice to melt at room temperature with no air moving around it, Room temp. being 73 degree F. I think? maybe 72? anyway the time is equal to one BTU. Maybe someone who knows the formula exactly can edit this.
How many sq feet does a 2 ton unit cover?
Ton for air conditioner1 ton of air conditioning = 12,000btu`s of cooling per 1 hour. 2 ton = 24,000 btu`s of heat removed in 1 one hour3 ton - 36,000 and so on.Airflow is measured in CFM (cubic feet per minute)
Converting therms to btu?
One million btu equals 10 therms. One hundred thousand btu equals one therm.
How many btu per kw?
One KW of electricity will give you 3,412 btu of heat.
What is refrigeration capacity?
As i found: A measure of the effective cooling capacity of a refrigerator, expressed in Btu per hour ot in tons, where one ton of capacity is equal to the heat required to melt 2000 pounds of ice in 24 hours or 12000 Btu per hour.
How many BTU in one ton of air conditioning?
12000
How many btu in one cubic meter?
Btu and cubic meter are two different measuring units. Btu is the unit for heat transmission, like in ac units 12000 btu/hr. It means this ac unit would remove 12000 btu of heat from the room in one hour. where as cubic meter is the unit for volume.
How much watts does one ton of air conditioning consume?
One Ton with respect to Refrigeration equals 12000 BTU/hr. (British Thermal Units) so 12000 BTU = 3.516 Kilowatts =3516 Watts.So as simple as it is.Consumes this much Power
12000 BTU equals how many CFM?
A watt is used to measure power, whereas a British Thermal Unit (BTU) is an archaic unit used for measuring energy. As power and energy are two different quantities, you cannot convert a watt into a BTU.Your question is rather like asking, "How many kilometres per hour' are there in a furlong?"
What is the meaning of 75 ton ac?
One ton of cooling = 12000 btu. Most homes use between 1-5 ton A/C's. Or, 12000-60000 btu of cooling. A 75 ton would be a massive unit! We're talking school bus sized!
What is 12000 km in miles?
There are 1.609344 kilometres in one mile. Therefore, 12000 miles is equal to 12000 x 1.609344 = 19312.128 kilometres.
What is the Tempstar air conditioner model number pgf036k080d tonnage?
That is a 3 ton unit. One ton of A/C = 12000 btu. The 36 in the model number refers to 36000 btu.
What is the tonage on a goodman outside package GPH1342H21AB?
That is a 3 1/2 ton unit. one ton of A/C = 12000 btu. The 42 in the model number refers to 42000 btu.
How do you convert A air conditioning unit from btus to tons?
The formula is simple. One ton of cooling equals 12000 btu. So a three ton A/C has a 36000 btu capacity.
What is the rheem model rka-030jaz tonnage?
That is a 2 1/2 ton unit. One ton of A/C = 12000 btu. The 30 in the model number refers to 30000 btu.
How many days are there in 12000 seconds?
One day is equal to 60 x 60 x 24 = 86400. Therefore, 12000 seconds is equal to 12000/86400 = 0.138 recurring (that is, 0.138888...) days.
