Thanks watz, for a clearer explanation regarding the thermal and electrical power.
<b>So, the question now is becoming clearer, if after calculating the space heat load as say for example 1 ton (thermal power) how much factor would you recommend so I could multiply it to the calculated thermal...
What I wanted to know is if: after calculating the cooling load in a space say for example 12MBtu/hr or 1ton, does it mean i have to buy a 1 ton ac unit?
What does "no" mean? Is it an answer to my first question, the second, or both?
If both, then if I calculated a space heat load of about 1ton, what type of ac unit should I buy? I mean what nameplate rating should I choose?
Does the power rating at the back or nameplate of an airconditioning unit if converted to tons of refrigeration (TOR) can cool a space of the same TOR?
For example, if the nameplate has a power rating of say 3.517 kW and if converted to TOR is equivalent to 1 tons. Does this mean that it can...
