Convert dekawatt to millijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert dekawatt [daW] to millijoule/second [mJ/s], or Convert millijoule/second to dekawatt.
1 daW = 10000 mJ/s. To convert dekawatt to millijoule/second, multiply the value by 10000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mJ/s = 0.0001 daW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 daW = 10000 mJ/s
- 1 mJ/s = 0.0001 daW
- 10 daW = 100000 mJ/s
- 100 daW = 1000000 mJ/s
How to Convert Dekawatt to Millijoule/second
1 daW = 10000 mJ/s
Example: convert 15 daW to mJ/s:
15 daW = 15 × 10000 mJ/s = 150000 mJ/s

Dekawatt
A dekawatt (daW) is a unit of power equal to 10 watts.
History/Origin
The dekawatt was introduced as part of the metric system's prefixes for larger units of power, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts, but it is not widely adopted in everyday use.
Current Use
The dekawatt is rarely used in modern practice; power measurements are typically expressed in watts or kilowatts. It may appear in specialized technical fields or historical references.
Millijoule/second
A millijoule per second (mJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one millijoule of energy transferred or converted every second.
History/Origin
The unit derives from the joule, the SI unit of energy, and the second, the SI unit of time. It has been used in contexts requiring small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering applications, with the millijoule being a submultiple of the joule.
Current Use
Millijoule per second is used to measure small power levels in scientific experiments, electronics, and other fields where precise, small-scale power measurement is necessary, often within the context of energy transfer or consumption rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 dekawatt in millijoule/second?
1 dekawatt (daW) = 10000 millijoule/second (mJ/s).
