Convert hectowatt to millijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert hectowatt [hW] to millijoule/second [mJ/s], or Convert millijoule/second to hectowatt.
1 hW = 100000 mJ/s. To convert hectowatt to millijoule/second, multiply the value by 100000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mJ/s = 1e-05 hW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hW = 100000 mJ/s
- 1 mJ/s = 1e-05 hW
- 10 hW = 1000000 mJ/s
- 100 hW = 10000000 mJ/s
How to Convert Hectowatt to Millijoule/second
1 hW = 100000 mJ/s
Example: convert 15 hW to mJ/s:
15 hW = 15 × 100000 mJ/s = 1500000 mJ/s

Hectowatt
A hectowatt (hW) is a unit of power equal to 100 watts.
History/Origin
The hectowatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide larger units of power measurement, though it is rarely used in practice today.
Current Use
The hectowatt is seldom used in modern contexts; power is typically expressed in watts or kilowatts, but it may appear in specific engineering or scientific applications requiring larger units.
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 hectowatt in millijoule/second?
1 hectowatt (hW) = 100000 millijoule/second (mJ/s).
