Convert horsepower hour to kiloelectron-volt
Please provide values below to convert horsepower hour [hp*h] to kiloelectron-volt [keV], or Convert kiloelectron-volt to horsepower hour.
1 hp*h = 1.6755e+22 keV. To convert horsepower hour to kiloelectron-volt, multiply the value by 1.6755e+22; to go the other way, divide by it (1 keV = 5.9682e-23 hp*h). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp*h = 1.6755e+22 keV
- 1 keV = 5.9682e-23 hp*h
- 10 hp*h = 1.6755e+23 keV
- 100 hp*h = 1.6755e+24 keV

Horsepower Hour
A horsepower hour (hp*h) is a unit of energy representing the amount of energy equivalent to one horsepower of power sustained over one hour of time.
History/Origin
The horsepower hour originated from the traditional unit of horsepower used to quantify engine power, combined with the hour to measure energy consumption or production over time. It has been used primarily in engineering and energy industries to express energy usage or capacity.
Current Use
Today, the horsepower hour is rarely used in practical applications, having been largely replaced by the joule and other SI units. However, it may still be referenced in historical data, legacy systems, or specific industries dealing with older measurement standards within the energy and mechanical sectors.
Kiloelectron-Volt
A kiloelectron-volt (keV) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 electron-volts, commonly used in atomic and nuclear physics to measure small amounts of energy.
History/Origin
The electron-volt was introduced in the early 20th century as a convenient unit for expressing energies at the atomic scale, with the prefix 'kilo' added later to denote 1,000 electron-volts, especially in high-energy physics and astrophysics.
Current Use
The keV is widely used today in fields such as X-ray spectroscopy, astrophysics, and particle physics to quantify energies of particles, photons, and nuclear processes.
