Refrigerant load to elect load

[sparo]

Hi All,

How to convert refrigerant load to elect load.

Say eg: from 2,400,000btu/hr to kw.



Thanks & Regards

Have you read up on the term:

COP = coefficient of performance ?

[sparo]

no have not read that.
just want to find out the power consumsion.

Sparo, your laizy, google on to Wikipedia and type C.O.P ,coifficient of performance, and you get all the info you want.

2.4m BTU -that's a fair old tonnage!

(Just to confuse things further ;-)

To convert 2400000 btu/hr to kw procedure is

1 btu/hr is equal to 2.928 kw so u convert easily .ok buddy.

^ but that is not the electrical consumption required which was his question.

Just commissioning 2 chillers in Minnesota at 5.5M BTU/hr each. had to convert everything to kW ref load to BTU and C to F time the americans joined the rest of the world and used SI i say.

240,0000 btu/hr = 200 TR

2OO TR DIVIDED BY 0.2845 = 702.98 KW

I use such, however, a very, very rough conversion: 1000 W electrical = 3000 W heat = 9000 Btu (also "heat", of course), simply, a mnemonic: 1-3-9, and vice versa.

This concerning the choice of a comp for an AC. I believe, I have not confused the numbers unforgivably.
