calorie to Kilowatt-hour Conversion Formula

To convert from calorie (cal) to Kilowatt-hour (kWh), use the following formula:

 Kilowatt-hour (kWh)\textbf{ Kilowatt-hour} \text{ (kWh)}

=4.184×160×60×1000× calorie (cal)= 4.184 \times \frac{1}{60 \times 60 \times 1000}\times \textbf{ calorie} \text{ (cal)}

=0.0000011622222222222222222× calorie (cal)= 0.0000011622222222222222222\times \textbf{ calorie} \text{ (cal)}

With 4.1844.184 is the ratio between the base units Joule (J) and calorie (cal).

Example

Let's convert 5 calorie (cal) to Kilowatt-hour (kWh).

Using the formula:

5×0.0000011622222222222222222=0.0000058111111111111111115 \times 0.0000011622222222222222222 = 0.000005811111111111111111

Therefore, 5 calorie (cal) is equal to 0.0000058111111111111111110.000005811111111111111111 Kilowatt-hour (kWh).
