what is 1 ton of cooling?
79893
A ton is the cooling capacity of an air conditioning system. One ton is equal to the amount of heat required (288,000 Btu) to melt one ton of ice in a 24-hour period. A one-ton air conditioner is rated at 12,000 Btu per hour (288,000/24). A two-ton unit would be rated at 24,000 Btu per hour.

Units that are 2 tons can cool off 901-1200 square feet spaces. Units that are 2.5 tons can cool off 1201-1500 square feet, etc.

A 4-ton air-conditioner will use approximately 4 kWh per hour. If a four-ton air-conditioner ran for 12 of the 24 hours in a day the usage would be 48 kWh per day. If a customer knows the BTU rating on his air-conditioner you can calculate the tonnage. 12,000 BTU = 1 ton.

Conversion Ton to Kilowatt The ton (ton of refrigeration) is a unit of power. This tool converts tons to kilowatts (ton to kw) and vice versa. 1 ton ≈ 3.5169 kilowatts. The user must fill one of the two fields and the conversion will become automatically.

1.0 Ton Split AC – 1.15 kW per hour (Approx 1.1 unit per hour) 1.5 Ton Split AC – 1.7 kW per hour (Approx 1.7 unit per hour)

A ton of refrigeration is defined as the rate of heat transfer that results in the melting of 1 short ton (2,000 Pound or 907 kg) of pure ice at 0 C (32 F) in 24 hours. The value is defined as 12,000 BTU per hour, or 3517 watts.

cooling capacity of 1 ton is equal to 3.517 kW of power.

When converting volume to weight, the medium of density is taken to be water. Water at a density of 1 lb = 27.72 cu in, converts to 12 US gallons to 100 lbs. 1 tonne is 2204 lbs, or 22.04 center, gives 264.48 gallons to the ton.
1325345
A two-ton unit would be rated at 24,000 Btu per hour. Typical residential central heating systems provide up to 5-tons of cooling.

A refrigeration ton is approximately equivalent to 12,000 BTU/h or 3.5 kW. Air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment capacity in the U.S. is often specified in "tons" (of refrigeration).

General Rule of Thumb The general rule amount that can be estimated is in the 2-4 pounds per ton of cooling for your system. For example: 3-ton AC or Heat Pump with a 35 foot lineset will need a total of approximately 6-12 pounds of refrigerant, to fully recharge from empty. This includes the lineset, coil and unit.

CFM shows the volume of air entering the room per minute (as it is cubic feet per minute). TR is tonnage of refrigeration which means amount of heat extracted to produce one ton of ice. Generally we take 1 TR = 400 CFM.

cooling capacity of 1 ton is equal to 3.517 kW of power. =1.5*3.517/2.7=1.954 kW. AC consists of two units, Indoor unit which is called the evaporator and the Outdoor Unit which called the Compressor.

In our opening statement we quoted a rule-of-thumb about air conditioning requiring 400 CFM per ton. This value is usually the basis for rating self-contained air conditioners. Thus, we have a 2-ton unit handling 800 CFM, a 3-ton 1,200, a 5-ton 2,000, a 10-ton 4,000, etc.

A refrigeration ton is approximately equivalent to 12,000 BTU/h or 3.5 kW. Air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment capacity in the U.S. is often specified in "tons" (of refrigeration). Many manufacturers also specify capacity in BTU/h, especially when specifying the performance of smaller equipment.
