What is the tonnage of a 108000 btu ac?

A ton of refrigeration is defined as the amount of heat removal required to change one ton of water (2000 pounds) at 32 degrees F to one ton of ice at 32 degrees F in one day which is 288000 BTUs. Today it is assumed that BTU ratings are by the hour, so one ton of refrigeration is the removal of 1200 BTU/hr. So if your air conditioning unit is removing 108000 BTUs/hr it is a 108000/12000 or 9 ton machine.


How many btu in a ton in a freezer system?

There are 12,000 British Thermal Units (BTU) in a ton of refrigeration (1 ton of refrigeration = 12,000 BTU/h). This measure is commonly used in the refrigeration industry to quantify the cooling capacity of a system.


A ton of refrigeration is equal to?

its the refrigeration's capibilty to move heat to a place that makes little or no difference. It equals up to 288,000 Btu/ per 24 hour period. Also you need 1 ton of refrigerant capacity per 600 square foot of a house. hope that helps


How many BUT has a car air conditioner?

If you mean BTU as in British Thermal Units cars generally have 3 to 5 ton airconditioners. A 12,000 BTU/hour cooling capacity is equivalent to 1 ton of refrigeration. The BTU equivalent of 1 ton of refrigeration is 288,000 BTU per 24 hours.


Refrigeration ton vs btu?

What is conversion factor between kw refrigeration and ton of refrigeration?

One ton of cooling is about 12,000 Btu/h one Btu/h is 0.293 watt so...One ton = 3.516 Kilowatts


Does one ton of ice equal 12000 btu?

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.


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.
