Convert kilojoule/second to megajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule/second [kJ/s] to megajoule/second [MJ/s], or Convert megajoule/second to kilojoule/second.
1 kJ/s = 0.001 MJ/s. To convert kilojoule/second to megajoule/second, multiply the value by 0.001; to go the other way, divide by it (1 MJ/s = 1000 kJ/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 kJ/s = 0.001 MJ/s
- 1 MJ/s = 1000 kJ/s
- 10 kJ/s = 0.01 MJ/s
- 100 kJ/s = 0.1 MJ/s
How to Convert Kilojoule/second to Megajoule/second
1 kJ/s = 0.001 MJ/s
Example: convert 15 kJ/s to MJ/s:
15 kJ/s = 15 × 0.001 MJ/s = 0.015 MJ/s

Kilojoule/second
A kilojoule per second (kJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one kilojoule of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), and has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure power, especially in fields like physics and energy studies.
Current Use
It is used to quantify power in various applications, including electrical power, mechanical power, and energy transfer rates, particularly where kilojoules and seconds are the relevant units.
Megajoule/second
A megajoule per second (MJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one megajoule of energy transferred or converted per second, where 1 megajoule equals 1,000,000 joules.
History/Origin
The megajoule per second has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify large-scale power, especially in fields like physics and energy systems, as a convenient unit for expressing high power levels. It is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second).
Current Use
Today, MJ/s is primarily used in scientific research, energy production, and engineering to describe high power outputs, such as in power plants, large-scale energy systems, and theoretical calculations involving energy transfer rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 kilojoule/second in megajoule/second?
1 kilojoule/second (kJ/s) = 0.001 megajoule/second (MJ/s).
How do you convert kilojoule/second to megajoule/second?
Multiply the kilojoule/second value by 0.001. For example, 25 kJ/s × 0.001 = 0.025 MJ/s.
