How this tool helps
Use this for quick HVAC capacity checks, equipment schedule review, chiller comparisons, and converting manufacturer data between kW, BTU/h, and TR.
Calculation methodology
BTU/h = kW x 3412.142. TR = kW / 3.517. kcal/h = kW x 860.421.
Assumptions and limits
This is a planning-level calculator. Final decisions should be checked against approved project standards, local authority requirements, manufacturer data, and qualified engineering review.
