Convert centijoule/second to deciwatt
Please provide values below to convert centijoule/second [cJ/s] to deciwatt [dW], or Convert deciwatt to centijoule/second.
1 cJ/s = 0.1 dW. To convert centijoule/second to deciwatt, multiply the value by 0.1; to go the other way, divide by it (1 dW = 10 cJ/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cJ/s = 0.1 dW
- 1 dW = 10 cJ/s
- 10 cJ/s = 1 dW
- 100 cJ/s = 10 dW
How to Convert Centijoule/second to Deciwatt
1 cJ/s = 0.1 dW
Example: convert 15 cJ/s to dW:
15 cJ/s = 15 × 0.1 dW = 1.5 dW

Centijoule/second
A centijoule per second (cJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to 0.01 joules per second.
History/Origin
The centijoule per second is derived from the SI unit joule, with the prefix centi indicating a hundredth, and is used in contexts requiring smaller power measurements. It has been in use as a supplementary unit in scientific and engineering fields where precise, small-scale power measurements are needed.
Current Use
The cJ/s is used in scientific research, engineering, and technical applications involving small power quantities, such as in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), low-power electronics, and detailed energy transfer analyses within the 'Power' converter category.
Deciwatt
A deciwatt (dW) is a unit of power equal to one-tenth of a watt, used to measure small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The deciwatt was introduced as part of the metric system's decimal prefixes to provide convenient submultiples of the watt, though it is rarely used in practice.
Current Use
Deciwatt is rarely used in modern applications; it may appear in specialized scientific contexts or theoretical calculations involving small power levels.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 centijoule/second in deciwatt?
1 centijoule/second (cJ/s) = 0.1 deciwatt (dW).
How do you convert centijoule/second to deciwatt?
Multiply the centijoule/second value by 0.1. For example, 25 cJ/s × 0.1 = 2.5 dW.
What is 10 centijoule/second in deciwatt?
10 cJ/s = 1 dW.
Which unit is larger, the centijoule/second or the deciwatt?
The deciwatt is the larger unit: 1 cJ/s equals only 0.1 dW.
