Kilowatt-Hour
A kilowatt-hour (kW·h) is a unit of energy equal to the energy transferred or used when a power of one kilowatt is sustained for one hour.
History/Origin
The kilowatt-hour originated in the late 19th century with the development of electrical power systems, becoming a standard unit for measuring electrical energy consumption and billing.
Current Use
It is widely used today in electricity billing, energy consumption monitoring, and in various engineering and scientific applications to quantify electrical energy usage.
Ton-Hour (Refrigeration)
A ton-hour (ton*h) is a unit of energy representing the amount of cooling provided by one ton of refrigeration over one hour.
History/Origin
The ton-hour originated from the refrigeration industry, where the 'ton' is a unit of cooling capacity, and the hour indicates the duration. It has been used historically to quantify cooling energy consumption and capacity.
Current Use
Today, the ton-hour is used in HVAC and refrigeration systems to measure cooling energy consumption, system capacity, and performance over specific periods.
