Convert horsepower (metric) to nanowatt
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (metric) [hp (metric)] to nanowatt [nW], or Convert nanowatt to horsepower (metric).
1 hp (metric) = 735498750000 nW. To convert horsepower (metric) to nanowatt, multiply the value by 735498750000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nW = 1.3596e-12 hp (metric)). 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 (metric) = 735498750000 nW
- 1 nW = 1.3596e-12 hp (metric)
- 10 hp (metric) = 7.3550e+12 nW

Horsepower (Metric)
The metric horsepower (hp) is a unit of power defined as exactly 735.5 watts, used to measure the power output of engines and motors.
History/Origin
The metric horsepower was introduced in the late 19th century as a standardized unit to quantify engine power, primarily in Europe, replacing traditional units like the imperial horsepower. It was adopted for consistency in engineering and automotive industries.
Current Use
Today, the metric horsepower is used mainly in automotive, engineering, and industrial contexts to specify engine power, especially in regions that utilize the metric system. It is also used in some countries for rating motor and engine capacities.
Nanowatt
A nanowatt (nW) is a unit of power equal to one billionth of a watt (10^-9 W).
History/Origin
The nanowatt is derived from the SI unit watt, with the prefix 'nano-' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very small power levels, especially in electronics and nanotechnology.
Current Use
Nanowatts are used in fields requiring precise measurement of tiny power quantities, such as in sensor technology, low-power electronics, and nanotechnology research.
