EER to kW/Ton Calculator

Convert EER to kW/Ton



Formula

The formula to convert EER to kW per Ton is:

\[ \text{kW/Ton} = \left(\frac{12}{\text{EER}}\right) \times \left(\frac{\text{Cooling Capacity}}{12000}\right) \]

Where:

What is EER?

Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) is a measure of how efficiently a cooling system operates when the outdoor temperature is at a specific level (usually 95°F). A higher EER rating indicates a more efficient air conditioning system. EER is calculated by dividing the cooling capacity in British Thermal Units (BTU) per hour by the power input in watts.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to convert EER to kW per Ton:

\[ \text{kW/Ton} = \left(\frac{12}{10}\right) \times \left(\frac{36000}{12000}\right) = 1.2 \times 3 = 3.6 \, \text{kW/Ton} \]

The kW per Ton is 3.6 kW/Ton.
