Convert kilocalorie (th)/second to microwatt
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (th)/second [kcal(th)/s] to microwatt [µW], or Convert microwatt to kilocalorie (th)/second.
1 kcal(th)/s = 4184000000 µW. To convert kilocalorie (th)/second to microwatt, multiply the value by 4184000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 µW = 2.3901e-10 kcal(th)/s). 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(th)/s = 4184000000 µW
- 1 µW = 2.3901e-10 kcal(th)/s
- 10 kcal(th)/s = 41840000000 µW
- 100 kcal(th)/s = 418400000000 µW
How to Convert Kilocalorie (Th)/second to Microwatt

Kilocalorie (Th)/second
A kilocalorie (th)/second (kcal(th)/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per second is transferred or converted.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie (th) is a traditional unit of energy used primarily in nutrition and thermodynamics, with 'th' indicating the thermochemical definition. Its use in power measurements, such as kcal(th)/s, is less common and primarily for specialized scientific contexts.
Current Use
The unit kcal(th)/s is rarely used in modern practice; power is more commonly expressed in watts. When used, it typically appears in scientific research involving energy transfer rates in thermochemical processes or specialized engineering applications.
Microwatt
A microwatt (µW) is a unit of power equal to one millionth of a watt, used to measure very small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The microwatt was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to provide standardized units for small quantities of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, gaining prominence with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
Microwatts are used in fields such as electronics, telecommunications, and biomedical engineering to quantify low power levels in devices, sensors, and circuits.
