Megawatt (MW)


The megawatt (symbol: MW) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 10610^{6} watts:


1 MW=1,000,000 W1 \text{ MW} = 1,000,000 \text{ W}

Megawatts are commonly used to express the power output of medium to large-sized power plants, such as wind farms, solar plants, and small hydroelectric stations. For example, a typical wind turbine might produce around 2 to 3 MW of power.


In practical terms, 1 megawatt can supply electricity to roughly 1,000 average homes.


The megawatt is a convenient scale for measuring electrical generation and consumption on a regional or city level, bridging the gap between smaller household power use (kilowatts) and larger industrial or national-scale power (gigawatts).


Ton (Refrigeration)


A ton of refrigeration is a unit of power used to describe the cooling capacity of air conditioning and refrigeration systems.



  • It is defined as the amount of heat required to melt one ton (2,000 pounds) of ice at 32°F (0°C) in 24 hours.



  • In terms of power, 1 ton of refrigeration equals:



1 ton=12,000 Btu/hour≈3.517 kilowatts1 \text{ ton} = 12,000 \text{ Btu/hour} \approx 3.517 \text{ kilowatts}

This unit helps quantify how much heat a cooling system can remove in one hour. For example, a 2-ton air conditioner can remove 24,000 Btu of heat per hour.


The ton of refrigeration is widely used in HVAC and refrigeration industries to specify system capacities.
