FAQ
What is the conversion factor from TR to kcal/hr?
1 TR equals 3023.949 kcal/hr. To convert, multiply the value in tons of refrigeration by 3023.949.
How do I convert 1 TR to kcal/hr?
1 TR = 3023.95 kcal/hr. For any value, multiply by 3023.949.
How do I convert kcal/hr back to TR?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.0003306934. So 1 kcal/hr = 0.000330693 TR.
When would I need to convert ton of refrigeration to kilocalorie per hour?
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).
