Convert kilojoule/second to picowatt
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule/second [kJ/s] to picowatt [pW], or Convert picowatt to kilojoule/second.
1 kJ/s = 1.0000e+15 pW. To convert kilojoule/second to picowatt, multiply the value by 1.0000e+15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pW = 1.0000e-15 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 = 1.0000e+15 pW
- 1 pW = 1.0000e-15 kJ/s
- 10 kJ/s = 1.0000e+16 pW
- 100 kJ/s = 1.0000e+17 pW
How to Convert Kilojoule/second to Picowatt
1 kJ/s = 1e+15 pW
Example: convert 15 kJ/s to pW:
15 kJ/s = 15 × 1e+15 pW = 1.5e+16 pW

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.
Picowatt
A picowatt (pW) is a unit of power equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a watt.
History/Origin
The picowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, following the standardization of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
Picowatts are used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify very low power levels, including in sensor measurements, quantum physics, and nanotechnology applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 kilojoule/second in picowatt?
