Converting from Kilowatt (kW) to Megacalorie per Second (Mcal/s) | Power

What is Kilowatt (kW)

Kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power commonly used to measure the rate at which work is done or energy is generated. It is equal to 1,000 watts and is widely used in various fields such as engineering, physics, and electronics.

What is Megacalorie per Second (Mcal/s)

Megacalorie per Second (Mcal/s) is a unit of power that measures energy transfer or heat generation. It represents the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1,000,000 grams of water by 1 degree Celsius in one second. It is commonly used in the field of thermodynamics.

Conversion Formulas

To convert Kilowatts (kW) to Megacalorie per Second (Mcal/s) and vice versa, you can use the following formulas:

Mcal/s=kW×0.0002388459

kW=Mcal/s×4186.8

Examples

1. Converting 15 kW to Mcal/s:

15kW=15×0.0002388459Mcal/s=0.003582688Mcal/s

2. Converting 11 Mcal/s to kW:

11Mcal/s=11×4186.8kW=46054.8kW

3. Converting 12 kW to Mcal/s:

12kW=12×0.0002388459Mcal/s=0.002866151Mcal/s

These examples demonstrate the simple yet essential conversion between Kilowatts and Megacalories per Second, providing valuable insights into power measurement.
