Convert kilowatt to millijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilowatt [kW] to millijoule/second [mJ/s], or Convert millijoule/second to kilowatt.
1 kW = 1000000 mJ/s. To convert kilowatt to millijoule/second, multiply the value by 1000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mJ/s = 1e-06 kW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 kW = 1000000 mJ/s
- 1 mJ/s = 1e-06 kW
- 10 kW = 10000000 mJ/s
- 100 kW = 100000000 mJ/s
How to Convert Kilowatt to Millijoule/second
1 kW = 1000000 mJ/s
Example: convert 15 kW to mJ/s:
15 kW = 15 × 1000000 mJ/s = 15000000 mJ/s

Kilowatt
A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power equal to 1,000 watts, used to measure the rate of energy transfer or consumption.
History/Origin
The kilowatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a practical unit for measuring larger power outputs, especially in engineering and electrical contexts, and has been widely adopted since the 20th century.
Current Use
The kilowatt is commonly used today to specify the power output of engines, electrical appliances, and power generation facilities, as well as in billing for electricity consumption and capacity ratings.
Millijoule/second
A millijoule per second (mJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one millijoule of energy transferred or converted every second.
History/Origin
The unit derives from the joule, the SI unit of energy, and the second, the SI unit of time. It has been used in contexts requiring small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering applications, with the millijoule being a submultiple of the joule.
Current Use
Millijoule per second is used to measure small power levels in scientific experiments, electronics, and other fields where precise, small-scale power measurement is necessary, often within the context of energy transfer or consumption rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 kilowatt in millijoule/second?
1 kilowatt (kW) = 1000000 millijoule/second (mJ/s).
How do you convert kilowatt to millijoule/second?
Multiply the kilowatt value by 1000000. For example, 25 kW × 1000000 = 25000000 mJ/s.
