Gram-Force Centimeter
Gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one gram-force applied at a distance of one centimeter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
The gram-force centimeter originated from the use of the gram-force as a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts before the adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Today, the gram-force centimeter is rarely used, having been largely replaced by SI units such as the newton meter (N·m) for torque measurements, but it may still appear in specialized or legacy applications.
Ton-Hour (Refrigeration)
A ton-hour (ton*h) is a unit of energy representing the amount of cooling provided by one ton of refrigeration over one hour.
History/Origin
The ton-hour originated from the refrigeration industry, where the 'ton' is a unit of cooling capacity, and the hour indicates the duration. It has been used historically to quantify cooling energy consumption and capacity.
Current Use
Today, the ton-hour is used in HVAC and refrigeration systems to measure cooling energy consumption, system capacity, and performance over specific periods.
