Converting kilowatts (kW) to refrigeration tons (RT) is essential in HVAC and refrigeration industries. One refrigeration ton is approximately equal to 3.5168525 kilowatts, meaning that 1 kW equals about 0.28434517 RT. To perform the conversion, divide the power in kilowatts by 3.5168525 to obtain the equivalent refrigeration tons. For example, converting 10 kW to refrigeration tons involves dividing 10 by 3.5168525, resulting in approximately 2.84345 RT. This conversion is crucial for accurately sizing and selecting equipment in cooling applications.
