Discover the ease of converting Ton-hour refrigeration (TR) to Pound-force Foot (lbf·ft) with our user-friendly converter, meticulously developed by Newtum. Dive into the world of HVAC calculations and get accurate conversions in a flash!
A Ton-hour (TRh) is a unit of energy used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning industry (HVAC). It represents the amount of heat required to melt one ton (2000 pounds) of ice over a period of one hour, equivalent to 12,000 BTU/h.
Definition of Pound-force-footThe Pound-force Foot (lbf·ft) is a unit of work or energy in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system. It is the amount of energy expended when a one-pound force is applied over a displacement of one foot. It is a measure commonly used in mechanical engineering.
| Ton-hour refrigeration (TRh) | Pound-force Foot (lbf·ft) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 TRh | 12000 lbf·ft |
| 0.2 TRh | 24000 lbf·ft |
| 0.3 TRh | 36000 lbf·ft |
| 0.4 TRh | 48000 lbf·ft |
| 0.5 TRh | 60000 lbf·ft |
| 1 TRh | 120000 lbf·ft |
| 2 TRh | 240000 lbf·ft |
| 3 TRh | 360000 lbf·ft |
| 4 TRh | 480000 lbf·ft |
| 5 TRh | 600000 lbf·ft |
Example 1:
Convert 0.5 TR to lbf·ft:
0.5 TR = 0.5 × 12000 lbf·ft = 6000 lbf·ft
Example 2:
Convert 2 TR to lbf·ft:
2 TR = 2 × 12000 lbf·ft = 24000 lbf·ft
