Convert centijoule/second to terawatt
Please provide values below to convert centijoule/second [cJ/s] to terawatt [TW], or Convert terawatt to centijoule/second.
1 cJ/s = 1.0000e-14 TW. To convert centijoule/second to terawatt, multiply the value by 1.0000e-14; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TW = 1.0000e+14 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 = 1.0000e-14 TW
- 1 TW = 1.0000e+14 cJ/s
- 10 cJ/s = 1.0000e-13 TW
- 100 cJ/s = 1.0000e-12 TW
How to Convert Centijoule/second to Terawatt
1 cJ/s = 1e-14 TW
Example: convert 15 cJ/s to TW:
15 cJ/s = 15 × 1e-14 TW = 1.5e-13 TW

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.
Terawatt
A terawatt (TW) is a unit of power equal to one trillion watts (10^12 watts).
History/Origin
The term 'terawatt' was introduced as part of the metric system to quantify extremely large power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production, gaining prominence in the 20th century with advancements in large-scale energy and power measurement.
Current Use
Terawatts are used to describe the total power output of large-scale energy sources, such as the total global power consumption, solar radiation received by Earth, and astrophysical phenomena.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 centijoule/second in terawatt?
1 centijoule/second (cJ/s) = 1.0000e-14 terawatt (TW).
How do you convert centijoule/second to terawatt?
