Answer / nilantha warushavithana
1 TR = 12,000 BTU/h
1 BTU/sec = 1.055 kW
12,000 Btu/h = 3.5166 kW
1 kW = 3412.3 BTU/h

Ikw
Power input in kw for per ton of refrigeration KW/TR
FOR EXAMPLE 100TR CHILLER
FOR PRODUCING 100TR POWER CONSUMED 90 KW
IKW /TON = 100 / 90 = 0.9 i.e 0.9 KW /TON
to find IKW,COP,EER
If the power consumption is 1 kw /ton power consumption
system will provide cop of 3.5 and EER will be 12.

In general Practice you can consider 1 Tr = 1200 Watt = 1.2
kw
1 TR = 3.5 KW is next to impossible.

Answer / sohal
to find out ikw
Amp.X Volts X Power-factor X 1.732/1000= kilowatts
then divided by machine tonnage = input kilowatt(IKW)

Answer / sandip bharne
1Tr=80x907/24 ( ice requires 80kcal/hr to melt,907 is US
short ton)
=3023 Kcal
1kw= 860kcal/hr
1TR =3024/860
1TR =3.51KW

Answer / carol
Be Carefull!!!!
TR and W are POWER UNITS
Btu is an ENERGY UNIT
As everyone knows from Basic Physics:
Energy = Power x time
The actual conversions are:
12.000 Btu/h = 1 TR
1 TR = 3517 W
Therefore,
12.000 Btu = 1 TR-h
12.000 Btu = 3517 kWh
Watchout!!!!!.....

Answer / shri narayan gond
I know that 1 kw = 3413 B.T.U. and 1T.R.=12000 B.T.U. ,1T.R.=12000/3413.=3•5Kw.
Santiry fugle chiller I.K.W.=lode k.w./T.r.
For ex. My chiller capacity is 760 tr. And lode
509 kw.
I.K.W. =509/760
Ikw =0•669

Answer / pradip
1TR= 12000BTU = 3000KCAL = 3.516KW,It is a thermal Unit,
But IKW relate of Power Consuption of Kw/TR,
In market many HVAC systems area available,so every systems
has different IKW,
Example : for VRV system
1TR consume 0.95 to 1.2KW,
1TR=1.2KW,
so IKW =1.2

Answer / ruka
1TR=3.5kW <-- Cooling Capacity
3.5kW/COP = Electricity Consumption; normally COP>= 3
COP = Coefficient of Performance
If COP = 3.5
then;
1TR = 1kW <--- Can be varie

we need saving power consumption in HVAC system. please share
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 5 Yes | 1 No |
how much power consumed by 1.5 ton capacity split A.C in 1 hour
what is efficient motors and how it is different from normal induction motors
how the percentage impedance affect the transformer loading when connected in parallel.?
why transmition and distribution and genaration of voltage in multible of 11 means 220v,440v,11kv,22kv,,,...so on
Why current transformers are rated in BURDEN instead of VA?
need to make a report. Need to choose a 3phase induction motor. Load conditions motor will operate in : Maximum Load: 30 Kw Speed: 2950 rpm Ambient temp: 20 cent Supply voltage: 440V Frequency: 50Hz need to look for the safety factor when choosing the motor, went through catalouge found a few, but dont know how to choose the safety factor allowing an extra load something above 30 KW to avoid any harm.
why rating of motor in HP?
In Which vector group power transformers are mostly manufactured?
difference between ground,neutral and earth?..
what is F.A.P in fire alarming system?
what is the effect of earth on capacitance in 3-phase and 1- phase transmission line?
1 KVAR = 1.3Amps but, 25KVAR capacitor/690V capacitor takes just 21Amps as leading current, what is the reason? Please explain...
