Convert horsepower (boiler) to decijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (boiler) [hp (boiler)] to decijoule/second [dJ/s], or Convert decijoule/second to horsepower (boiler).
1 hp (boiler) = 98100 dJ/s. To convert horsepower (boiler) to decijoule/second, multiply the value by 98100; to go the other way, divide by it (1 dJ/s = 1.01936799185e-05 hp (boiler)). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp (boiler) = 98100 dJ/s
- 1 dJ/s = 1.01936799185e-05 hp (boiler)
- 10 hp (boiler) = 981000 dJ/s
- 100 hp (boiler) = 9810000 dJ/s
How to Convert Horsepower (Boiler) to Decijoule/second
1 hp (boiler) = 98100 dJ/s
Example: convert 15 hp (boiler) to dJ/s:
15 hp (boiler) = 15 × 98100 dJ/s = 1471500 dJ/s

Horsepower (Boiler)
Horsepower (boiler) is a unit of power used to measure the rate of energy transfer, specifically indicating the power of steam boilers, equivalent to approximately 33,475 watts.
History/Origin
The boiler horsepower was developed in the late 19th century to standardize the measurement of steam boiler capacity, primarily in the United States, and has been used historically in engineering and industrial applications to quantify boiler power output.
Current Use
Today, boiler horsepower is primarily used in the United States for specifying the capacity of steam boilers in industrial and commercial settings, although it has largely been replaced by SI units like watts or kilowatts in most regions.
Decijoule/second
A decijoule per second (dJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one-tenth of a joule per second, representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion.
History/Origin
The decijoule is a decimal submultiple of the joule, introduced as part of the metric system to facilitate measurements at smaller scales. Its usage in power calculations, such as decijoules per second, has been consistent with the adoption of SI units, though it is less common in modern practice.
Current Use
Decijoule per second is rarely used in contemporary contexts; power is more commonly expressed in watts (joules per second). When used, it typically appears in specialized scientific or engineering applications requiring fine-grained energy rate measurements at the deci level.
