Nanojoule/second
A nanojoule per second (nJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one nanojoule of energy per second.
History/Origin
The nanojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'nano' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It is used in contexts requiring very small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering fields.
Current Use
The nJ/s is used in scientific research, nanotechnology, and precise energy transfer measurements where extremely low power levels are involved, often in the context of nanoscale systems or experiments.
Ton (Refrigeration)
A refrigeration ton is a unit of power used to describe the cooling capacity of air conditioning and refrigeration systems, equivalent to the heat removal of one ton of ice melting in 24 hours.
History/Origin
The refrigeration ton originated in the early 20th century as a practical measure for cooling capacity, based on the amount of heat required to melt one ton of ice over a 24-hour period, approximately 12,000 BTU per hour.
Current Use
It is primarily used in HVAC and refrigeration industries to specify the cooling capacity of air conditioning units and chillers, with 1 refrigeration ton equal to 12,000 BTU/h or approximately 3.517 kilowatts.
