FAQ
What is the conversion factor from TR to J/s?
1 TR equals 3516.853 J/s. To convert, multiply the value in tons of refrigeration by 3516.853.
How do I convert 1 TR to J/s?
1 TR = 3516.85 J/s. For any value, multiply by 3516.853.
How do I convert J/s back to TR?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.0002843451. So 1 J/s = 0.000284345 TR.
When would I need to convert ton of refrigeration to joule per second?
Power conversions are common when comparing motor ratings (often kW or hp), thermal duty (BTU/hr or kW), and utility consumption in mixed-unit projects.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
