Convert horsepower to nanojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert horsepower [hp] to nanojoule/second [nJ/s], or Convert nanojoule/second to horsepower.
1 hp = 745700000000 nJ/s. To convert horsepower to nanojoule/second, multiply the value by 745700000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nJ/s = 1.3410e-12 hp). 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 = 745700000000 nJ/s
- 1 nJ/s = 1.3410e-12 hp
- 10 hp = 7.4570e+12 nJ/s
- 100 hp = 7.4570e+13 nJ/s
How to Convert Horsepower to Nanojoule/second
1 hp = 745700000000 nJ/s
Example: convert 15 hp to nJ/s:
15 hp = 15 × 745700000000 nJ/s = 11185500000000 nJ/s

Horsepower
Horsepower (hp) is a unit of power measurement originally developed to compare the power of engines and motors, representing the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.
History/Origin
The term was introduced in the late 18th century by James Watt to compare the power of steam engines to draft horses. It became a standard unit in engineering and automotive industries, with its definition evolving over time from mechanical to metric standards.
Current Use
Horsepower is widely used today to rate the power output of engines, motors, and other machinery, especially in automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications. It remains a common unit for expressing engine power in many countries.
Nanojoule/second
A nanojoule per second (nJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one nanojoule of energy per second.
History/Origin
The nanojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'nano' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It is used in contexts requiring very small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering fields.
Current Use
The nJ/s is used in scientific research, nanotechnology, and precise energy transfer measurements where extremely low power levels are involved, often in the context of nanoscale systems or experiments.
