What does one newton meter per second represent?

One newton meter per second is a power unit equal to one joule per second (one watt), representing the rate of doing work or energy transfer.

What is a ton (refrigeration)?

A ton (refrigeration) measures the cooling capacity needed to melt one short ton of ice in 24 hours, equivalent to 12,000 BTU per hour or approximately 3,516.85 watts.

Why convert newton meter/second to ton (refrigeration)?

This conversion helps express mechanical or electrical power ratings in terms of cooling capacity, which is essential for HVAC and refrigeration system design.
