Converting refrigeration tons to kilowatts is essential for accurately assessing cooling system capacities. One refrigeration ton is equivalent to approximately 3.5168525 kilowatts. To convert, multiply the number of refrigeration tons by this factor. For example, a 2-ton system equates to about 7.0337 kW (2 × 3.5168525). Conversely, to convert kilowatts to refrigeration tons, multiply the kilowatts by 0.284345. These conversions are vital for engineers and HVAC professionals when designing and evaluating cooling systems.
