What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to translate power values measured in kilovolt ampere (kV*A), a unit representing apparent power in AC electrical systems, into tons (refrigeration), a unit indicating cooling capacity used in HVAC and refrigeration equipment.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in kilovolt ampere (kV*A) that you want to convert
  • Select kilovolt ampere as the input unit and ton (refrigeration) as the output unit
  • Initiate the conversion to obtain the equivalent cooling capacity in tons
  • Review the result and apply it to your HVAC or electrical system calculations

Key Features

  • Converts apparent electrical power (kV*A) into refrigeration cooling power (tons)
  • Ideal for HVAC, electrical engineering, and building design applications
  • Includes practical examples for easy understanding
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface

Examples

  • Convert 5 kV*A: 5 × 0.2843451361 = 1.4217 tons (refrigeration)
  • Convert 10 kV*A: 10 × 0.2843451361 = 2.8435 tons (refrigeration)

Common Use Cases

  • Rating transformers, generators, and uninterruptible power supplies with apparent power specifications
  • Sizing residential and commercial air-conditioning units expressed in refrigeration tons
  • Specifying capacity for commercial refrigeration and cold-room equipment
  • Estimating HVAC load and cooling equipment requirements based on electrical power availability

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use this conversion to relate electrical apparent power to cooling capacity in HVAC design
  • Consider this as an approximate equivalence; verify with system-specific efficiency and power factor
  • Combine with watt-based measurements for detailed equipment sizing where precision is essential
  • Use conversion examples as benchmarks when planning or specifying equipment

Limitations

  • Kilovolt ampere quantifies apparent power, not actual cooling output, so conversion is approximate
  • Ton (refrigeration) is a non-standard unit requiring careful interpretation in technical designs
  • System efficiency, power factor, and other operational factors can affect accuracy
  • For precise applications, watt-based metrics and detailed system analysis should supplement this conversion

Frequently Asked Questions

What does kilovolt ampere measure?
Kilovolt ampere (kV*A) measures apparent power in AC electrical systems and is the product of the RMS voltage and current without considering the phase angle.

What is a ton (refrigeration)?
A ton (refrigeration) represents the power needed to remove heat equivalent to melting a short ton of ice over 24 hours, commonly used to express cooling capacity.

Can this conversion be used for precise HVAC design?
This conversion offers an approximate equivalence but should be combined with additional details such as system efficiency and watt measurements for precise sizing.

Key Terminology

Kilovolt ampere (kV*A)
A measurement of apparent power in alternating-current electrical systems, calculated as the product of RMS voltage and RMS current irrespective of phase angle.
Ton (refrigeration)
A non-SI unit of power indicating the cooling capacity equivalent to melting one short ton of ice in 24 hours, commonly used in HVAC applications.
Apparent Power
The total power in an AC circuit, combining both real power and reactive power, represented by kilovolt ampere.
