About Megavolt-Ampere (MVA)
One megavolt-ampere equals 1,000,000 VA. Common in transformer and grid-scale apparent-power ratings.
About Ton of Refrigeration (TR)
One ton of refrigeration (TR) equals 12,000 BTU/h (IT), approximately 3,516.85 W. It is widely used in HVAC and refrigeration sizing.
How to convert megavolt-amperes (mva, unity pf) to tons of refrigeration (tr)
1 megavolt-ampere (mva) is equal to 284.34513609399517 ton of refrigeration (tr) when both are expressed in watt-equivalents:
1 mva = (1,000,000 W ÷ 3,516.8528420666667 W) tr = 284.34513609399517 tr
Each megavolt-ampere (mva) is defined as 1,000,000 W and each ton of refrigeration (tr) as 3,516.8528420666667 W in this tool, so one mva equals 1,000,000 ÷ 3,516.8528420666667 tr = 284.34513609399517 tr.
Let d(mva) be the numeric value in Megavolt-Ampere (MVA) (mva), and d(tr) the value in Ton of Refrigeration (TR) (tr). Then:
d(tr) = d(mva) × (1,000,000 / 3,516.8528420666667)
Equivalently, divide by how many mva fit into one tr (watts per tr divided by watts per mva):
d(tr) = d(mva) ÷ 0.00351685284207
Or: ton of refrigeration (tr) = megavolt-ampere (mva) ÷ 0.00351685284207
Examples
Example #1: Convert 1 mva to ton of refrigeration (tr)
1 mva = 1 mva × (1,000,000/3,516.8528420666667) tr = 284.345136094 tr
1 mva = 1 mva ÷ 0.00351685284207 = 284.345136094 tr
Intermediate watts: 1,000,000 W
Example #2: Convert 10 mva to ton of refrigeration (tr)
10 mva = 10 mva × (1,000,000/3,516.8528420666667) tr = 2843.45136094 tr
10 mva = 10 mva ÷ 0.00351685284207 = 2843.45136094 tr
Intermediate watts: 10,000,000 W
Summary
To convert Megavolt-Ampere (MVA) to Ton of Refrigeration (TR), multiply the value in mva by the ratio of watts per mva divided by watts per tr. Equivalently: value_tr = value_mva × (1000000 / 3516.8528420666667). Numerically, 1 mva equals 284.34513609399517 tr.
Relationship context
Both units are apparent power at unity PF (VA). Conversions use fixed watt factors, so results stay consistent with the definitions in this converter. The factor from Megavolt-Ampere (MVA) to Ton of Refrigeration (TR) is 2.843451e+2 (1 mva = 284.34513609399517 tr).
