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.

About Megavolt-Ampere (MVA)

One megavolt-ampere equals 1,000,000 VA. Common in transformer and grid-scale apparent-power ratings.

How to convert tons of refrigeration (tr) to megavolt-amperes (mva, unity pf)

1 ton of refrigeration (tr) is equal to 0.00351685284207 megavolt-ampere (mva) when both are expressed in watt-equivalents:

1 tr = (3,516.8528420666667 W ÷ 1,000,000 W) mva = 0.00351685284207 mva

Each ton of refrigeration (tr) is defined as 3,516.8528420666667 W and each megavolt-ampere (mva) as 1,000,000 W in this tool, so one tr equals 3,516.8528420666667 ÷ 1,000,000 mva = 0.00351685284207 mva.

Let d(tr) be the numeric value in Ton of Refrigeration (TR) (tr), and d(mva) the value in Megavolt-Ampere (MVA) (mva). Then:

d(mva) = d(tr) × (3,516.8528420666667 / 1,000,000)

Equivalently, divide by how many tr fit into one mva (watts per mva divided by watts per tr):

d(mva) = d(tr) ÷ 284.34513609399517

Or: megavolt-ampere (mva) = ton of refrigeration (tr) ÷ 284.34513609399517

Examples

Example #1: Convert 1 tr to megavolt-ampere (mva)

1 tr = 1 tr × (3,516.8528420666667/1,000,000) mva = 0.0035168528 mva

1 tr = 1 tr ÷ 284.34513609399517 = 0.0035168528 mva

Intermediate watts: 3,516.85284207 W

Example #2: Convert 10 tr to megavolt-ampere (mva)

10 tr = 10 tr × (3,516.8528420666667/1,000,000) mva = 0.0351685284 mva

10 tr = 10 tr ÷ 284.34513609399517 = 0.0351685284 mva

Intermediate watts: 35,168.5284207 W

Summary

To convert Ton of Refrigeration (TR) to Megavolt-Ampere (MVA), multiply the value in tr by the ratio of watts per tr divided by watts per mva. Equivalently: value_mva = value_tr × (3516.8528420666667 / 1000000). Numerically, 1 tr equals 0.003516852842066667 mva.

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 Ton of Refrigeration (TR) to Megavolt-Ampere (MVA) is 3.516853e-3 (1 tr = 0.003516852842066667 mva).
