What Is This Tool?

This converter helps you translate power values expressed in tons of refrigeration, commonly used in cooling and HVAC systems, into kilovolt amperes (kV*A), which measure apparent power in electrical systems. It assists professionals in correlating thermal cooling capacity with electrical power requirements.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in tons of refrigeration you want to convert
  • Select the target unit as kilovolt ampere (kV*A)
  • Click convert to see the equivalent apparent power value
  • Use the result to compare HVAC cooling capacity with electrical load requirements

Key Features

  • Converts power from ton (refrigeration) to kilovolt ampere (kV*A) easily
  • Supports HVAC and electrical power system applications
  • Browser-based tool accessible without installation
  • Utilizes standardized conversion rate based on cooling and electrical power definitions

Examples

  • 2 Ton (refrigeration) converts to approximately 7.0337 Kilovolt ampere [kV*A]
  • 0.5 Ton (refrigeration) converts to about 1.7584 Kilovolt ampere [kV*A]

Common Use Cases

  • Sizing and rating residential or commercial air-conditioning systems by correlating cooling capacity with electrical power
  • Specifying cooling and electrical capacities in commercial refrigeration and cold-room installations
  • Designing power distribution systems in buildings and data centers integrating HVAC and electrical loads

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify the assumptions about power factor when relating cooling capacity to apparent electrical power
  • Use the conversion for preliminary sizing and equipment selection, not exact energy consumption calculation
  • Consider both thermal and electrical parameters for comprehensive HVAC and power system design

Limitations

  • Ton (refrigeration) quantifies thermal cooling power, while kilovolt ampere measures electrical apparent power; the conversion assumes ideal conditions
  • This tool does not account for power factor or phase angle—actual usable power may differ
  • Conversion yields apparent power, not real power (kW), which affects practical electrical load assessments

Frequently Asked Questions

What does one ton (refrigeration) represent?
It represents the rate of heat removal to melt a short ton of ice in 24 hours, equal to 12,000 BTU per hour or about 3.517 kilowatts.

Why convert ton (refrigeration) to kilovolt ampere?
To relate HVAC cooling capacity expressed in tons to the electrical apparent power needed, facilitating integrated system design.

Does this conversion provide the real electrical power consumption?
No, it only provides apparent power values and does not consider power factor or phase angle.

Key Terminology

Ton (refrigeration)
A measure of cooling power defined as the heat removal to melt one short ton of ice in 24 hours, equivalent to 12,000 BTU/h or approximately 3.517 kW.
Kilovolt ampere (kV*A)
A unit of apparent power in AC electrical systems equal to 1,000 volt-amperes that quantifies the RMS voltage and current product without considering phase angle.
Apparent power
The product of RMS voltage and RMS current in an AC system, expressed in kilovolt amperes, not accounting for power factor.
