Kilocalorie to Kilowatt-hour Conversion Formula

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

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

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

=0.0011622222222222222222× Kilocalorie (kcal)= 0.0011622222222222222222\times \textbf{ Kilocalorie} \text{ (kcal)}

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

Example

Let's convert 5 Kilocalorie (kcal) to Kilowatt-hour (kWh).

Using the formula:

5×0.0011622222222222222222=0.0058111111111111111115 \times 0.0011622222222222222222 = 0.005811111111111111111

Therefore, 5 Kilocalorie (kcal) is equal to 0.0058111111111111111110.005811111111111111111 Kilowatt-hour (kWh).
