Convert calorie (IT)/hour to femtowatt
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/hour [cal/h] to femtowatt [fW], or Convert femtowatt to calorie (IT)/hour.
1 cal/h = 1.1630e+15 fW. To convert calorie (IT)/hour to femtowatt, multiply the value by 1.1630e+15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 fW = 8.5985e-16 cal/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cal/h = 1.1630e+15 fW
- 1 fW = 8.5985e-16 cal/h
- 10 cal/h = 1.1630e+16 fW
- 100 cal/h = 1.1630e+17 fW
How to Convert Calorie (It)/hour to Femtowatt
1 cal/h = 1.163e+15 fW
Example: convert 15 cal/h to fW:
15 cal/h = 15 × 1.163e+15 fW = 1.7445e+16 fW

Calorie (It)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal/h) is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or consumed over time.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and thermodynamics to quantify energy. The cal/h unit emerged in contexts where energy transfer rates were expressed in calories per hour, particularly in heating and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Cal/h is used in specific scientific and engineering applications, such as measuring heat transfer rates, metabolic rates, and in some thermal engineering contexts, although it is less common than SI units like watts.
Femtowatt
A femtowatt (fW) is a unit of power equal to 10^-15 watts, representing an extremely small amount of power.
History/Origin
The femtowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure very small quantities of power, particularly in scientific and technological contexts, gaining recognition as the need to quantify minute power levels grew.
Current Use
Femtowatts are used in fields such as quantum physics, nanotechnology, and optical measurements, where precise measurement of extremely low power levels is required.
