What Is This Tool?

This converter helps translate mechanical power expressed in horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) to cooling capacity expressed in tons of refrigeration. It aids in aligning engine or motor ratings with HVAC and refrigeration system power metrics.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s)
  • Select horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) as the input unit
  • Choose ton (refrigeration) as the target unit
  • Click convert to obtain the equivalent cooling capacity
  • Review the converted output for comparison or engineering calculations

Key Features

  • Converts power units from horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) to ton (refrigeration)
  • Based on standard definitions for mechanical horsepower and refrigeration ton
  • Offers quick calculation with a fixed conversion rate
  • Useful for engineering and HVAC industry applications
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation

Examples

  • 5 horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) equals approximately 1.06018 ton (refrigeration)
  • 10 horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) equals about 2.12036 ton (refrigeration)

Common Use Cases

  • Rating internal-combustion engines and small machinery power
  • Specifying HVAC equipment cooling capacity in refrigeration tons
  • Comparing mechanical power of engines to cooling load capacities
  • Sizing cooling devices and performing thermal calculations in building engineering

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure consistent unit definitions to avoid discrepancies
  • Use the tool for HVAC and refrigeration contexts primarily
  • Understand the conceptual difference between mechanical power and heat removal rates
  • Double-check results when performing critical engineering calculations

Limitations

  • Conversion relies on standard definitions; differences may affect results
  • Ton (refrigeration) is non-SI and relevant mainly in cooling system contexts
  • Mechanical horsepower and ton refrigeration measure different physical rates, so equivalence is conceptual and context-dependent

Frequently Asked Questions

What does horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) represent?
It is an imperial unit of mechanical power defined as 550 foot-pound-force per second, commonly used to rate engines and small motors.

What is a ton (refrigeration) used for?
A ton (refrigeration) measures cooling capacity, equal to the heat removal rate to melt one short ton of ice in 24 hours, often used in HVAC and refrigeration equipment ratings.

Is the conversion between these units exact?
The conversion is based on standard definitions but is conceptual because mechanical power and heat removal rates differ in nature.

Key Terminology

Horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s)
