Unit Description
Kilovolt-Ampere (kVA)
Definition
Kilovolt-ampere (kVA) is a unit of apparent power equal to one thousand volt-amperes. It's widely used for rating large AC electrical equipment, transformers, and electrical systems where apparent power is the primary concern.
History
Kilovolt-ampere became standard with the growth of large AC electrical systems and power distribution. It provided an appropriate scale for rating transformers, generators, and large electrical equipment where apparent power capacity was the critical specification.
Current Use
Kilovolt-amperes are extensively used for transformer ratings, generator specifications, large UPS systems, and electrical distribution equipment. They're standard for power system design, electrical equipment ratings, and AC power capacity specifications.
Kilocalorie per Hour (kcal/h)
Definition
Kilocalorie per hour (kcal/h) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one kilocalorie per hour. It's commonly used in heating and cooling applications, providing a practical scale for thermal power measurements.
History
Kilocalorie per hour became important in heating and cooling system design, providing a convenient scale for thermal power measurements. It was particularly useful in applications where thermal energy rates needed to be expressed in familiar calorie-based units.
Current Use
Kilocalorie per hour is used in heating and cooling systems, thermal equipment ratings, and energy efficiency calculations. It's standard for thermal system specifications, heating equipment ratings, and applications where thermal power is measured in calorie-based units.
