Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to petawatt
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h] to petawatt [PW], or Convert petawatt to kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
1 kcal/h = 1.1630e-15 PW. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to petawatt, multiply the value by 1.1630e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 PW = 8.5985e+14 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 = 1.1630e-15 PW
- 1 PW = 8.5985e+14 kcal/h
- 10 kcal/h = 1.1630e-14 PW
- 100 kcal/h = 1.1630e-13 PW
How to Convert Kilocalorie (It)/hour to Petawatt
1 kcal/h = 1.163e-15 PW
Example: convert 15 kcal/h to PW:
15 kcal/h = 15 × 1.163e-15 PW = 1.7445e-14 PW

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.
Petawatt
A petawatt (PW) is a unit of power equal to 10^15 watts, used to measure extremely high power levels.
History/Origin
The petawatt was introduced in the 1980s as part of the SI prefixes to describe ultra-high power outputs, particularly in laser physics and astrophysics research.
Current Use
Petawatts are primarily used in scientific research involving high-intensity lasers, astrophysics, and nuclear physics to quantify extremely large power outputs.
