Hello Everybody,
I'm trying to convert a gallon of chilled water to TONS.
Is this correct?
1. The weight of 1 gal of water is 8.35 lbm
2. From saturated liquid tables I get uf (internal energy @ 50F temp) = 18.06 btu/lbm
3. 1 Ton = 12000 btu
Therefore,
1 gal (8.35 lbm/1 gal)(18.06 btu/lbm)(1 ton / 12000 btu)
Is this correct?
Thank you in advance for any help on this question,
V.
