What are Ton-hour and Watt-hour

A ton-hour (th) is a unit of energy commonly used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning industry. It represents the amount of heat required to melt one ton (2000 pounds) of ice over a period of 24 hours. This unit is often used to describe the capacity of air conditioning systems, refrigeration units, and heat pumps in terms of the heat they can remove from a space.

A watt-hour (Wh) is a unit of energy equivalent to one watt (1 W) of power expended for one hour (1 h) of time. It quantifies the amount of energy used or produced by electrical devices. For instance, a 100 W light bulb operating for 10 hours would consume 1000 Wh of energy. This unit is widely used in the electrical industry and for billing electricity consumption.

History of Ton-hour and Watt-hour

The concept of ton-hour refrigeration to watt-hour conversion stems from the need to bridge traditional HVAC units with modern electrical energy measurements. This conversion allows for a more universal understanding of energy consumption and efficiency in air conditioning and refrigeration systems, adapting to the globally accepted metric system.
