One ton of refrigeration is defined as the heat rate corresponding to melting of one ton of ice in one ________________?
Correct answer: B. Day
- A. Hour
- B. Day
- C. Minute
- D. Second
Explanation
One ton of refrigeration is the cooling rate required to melt one ton of ice at 0C in 24 hours. It is therefore a heat rate based on one day, not one hour or one minute.
