What are Erg and Ton-hour

Definition of Erg

An erg is a unit of energy or work in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is equivalent to the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted for a distance of one centimeter. In scientific terms, one erg is equal to 10^-7 joules, the standard unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI).

Definition of Ton-hour

A ton-hour (TRh) is a unit of energy commonly used in the refrigeration and air conditioning industry. It represents the amount of heat absorbed or released by one ton of ice to melt or freeze over the span of an hour. One ton-hour is equivalent to the energy required to melt one ton (2000 pounds) of ice at 32°F (0°C) in 24 hours, which is approximately 12,000 British Thermal Units (BTU).

Erg to Ton-hour Conversion Table

Erg Ton-hour (TRh)

2.0E+11 1.6667E-8
3.0E+11 2.5E-8
4.0E+11 3.3333E-8
5.0E+11 4.1667E-8
6.0E+11 5.0E-8
7.0E+11 5.8333E-8
8.0E+11 6.6667E-8
9.0E+11 7.5E-8
1.0E+12 8.3333E-8

Conversion of Erg to Ton-hour

1 erg = 8.3333E-14 ton-hour refrigeration (TRh)
1 TRh = 1.2E+13 erg

Example 1:
Convert 1.0E+11 erg to TRh:
1.0E+11 erg = 1.0E+11 × 8.3333E-14 TRh = 8.3333E-9 TRh

Example 2:
Convert 5.0E+11 erg to TRh:
5.0E+11 erg = 5.0E+11 × 8.3333E-14 TRh = 4.1667E-8 TRh

History of Erg and Ton-hour

The 'Erg to Ton-hour refrigeration Converter' is a tool that has evolved over the years to aid in the conversion of energy from ergs, a small unit of energy, to ton-hours, a unit measuring refrigeration capacity. Its development has been driven by the need for precise energy conversions in scientific and engineering fields.
