Watt Conversion Formulas

Watt to Milliwatt Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Milliwatt (mW), use the following formula:

 Milliwatt (mW)\textbf{ Milliwatt } (mW)

=1000× Watt (W)= 1000\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

Watt to Kilowatt Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Kilowatt (kW), use the following formula:

 Kilowatt (kW)\textbf{ Kilowatt } (kW)

=11000× Watt (W)= \frac{1}{1000}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

=0.001× Watt (W)= 0.001\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

Watt to Megawatt Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Megawatt (MW), use the following formula:

 Megawatt (MW)\textbf{ Megawatt } (MW)

=1106× Watt (W)= \frac{1}{10^{6}}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

=10−6× Watt (W)= 10^{-6}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

Watt to Gigawatt Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Gigawatt (GW), use the following formula:

 Gigawatt (GW)\textbf{ Gigawatt } (GW)

=1109× Watt (W)= \frac{1}{10^{9}}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

=10−9× Watt (W)= 10^{-9}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

Watt to Horsepower (metric) Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Horsepower (metric) (PS), use the following formula:

 Horsepower (metric) (PS)\textbf{ Horsepower (metric) } (PS)

=1735.49875× Watt (W)= \frac{1}{735.49875}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

=0.0013596216173039043234× Watt (W)= 0.0013596216173039043234\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

Watt to British thermal unit per second Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to British thermal unit per second (Btu/s), use the following formula:

 British thermal unit per second (Btu/s)\textbf{ British thermal unit per second } (Btu/s)

=0.737562149×1778.16937× Watt (W)= 0.737562149 \times \frac{1}{778.16937}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

=0.00094781698873601257269× Watt (W)= 0.00094781698873601257269\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

With 0.7375621490.737562149 is the ratio between the base units Foot-pound per second (ft-lb/s) and Watt (W).

Watt to Foot-pound per second Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Foot-pound per second (ft-lb/s), use the following formula:

 Foot-pound per second (ft−lb/s)\textbf{ Foot-pound per second } (ft-lb/s)

=0.737562149× Watt (W)= 0.737562149\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

With 0.7375621490.737562149 is the ratio between the base units Foot-pound per second (ft-lb/s) and Watt (W).

Watt to Horsepower (British) Conversion Formula

To convert from Watt (W) to Horsepower (British) (hp), use the following formula:

 Horsepower (British) (hp)\textbf{ Horsepower (British) } (hp)

=0.737562149×1550× Watt (W)= 0.737562149 \times \frac{1}{550}\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

=0.0013410220890909090909× Watt (W)= 0.0013410220890909090909\times \textbf{ Watt } (W)

With 0.7375621490.737562149 is the ratio between the base units Foot-pound per second (ft-lb/s) and Watt (W).
