Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to milliwatt
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h] to milliwatt [mW], or Convert milliwatt to kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
1 kcal/h = 1163 mW. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to milliwatt, multiply the value by 1163; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mW = 0.000859845227859 kcal/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 kcal/h = 1163 mW
- 1 mW = 0.000859845227859 kcal/h
- 10 kcal/h = 11630 mW
- 100 kcal/h = 116300 mW
How to Convert Kilocalorie (It)/hour to Milliwatt
1 kcal/h = 1163 mW
Example: convert 15 kcal/h to mW:
15 kcal/h = 15 × 1163 mW = 17445 mW

Kilocalorie (It)/hour
Kilocalorie per hour (kcal/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories is transferred or converted per hour.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adopted as a unit of energy. Its use in power measurement, such as kcal/h, emerged in contexts like thermal and caloric power calculations, especially in fields related to heating and energy transfer.
Current Use
kcal/h is used in applications involving thermal power, such as heating systems, calorimetry, and energy transfer calculations where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
Milliwatt
A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt, used to measure small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The milliwatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a convenient unit for measuring low power levels, especially in electronics and telecommunications, with its usage expanding alongside the adoption of the watt as the standard power unit.
Current Use
Milliwatts are commonly used today in electronics, audio equipment, and wireless communication devices to specify power levels, such as in battery-powered devices, LED brightness, and signal transmission power.
