Convert millijoule/second to kilowatt
Please provide values below to convert millijoule/second [mJ/s] to kilowatt [kW], or Convert kilowatt to millijoule/second.
1 mJ/s = 1e-06 kW. To convert millijoule/second to kilowatt, multiply the value by 1e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kW = 1000000 mJ/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 mJ/s = 1e-06 kW
- 1 kW = 1000000 mJ/s
- 10 mJ/s = 1e-05 kW
- 100 mJ/s = 0.0001 kW
How to Convert Millijoule/second to Kilowatt
1 mJ/s = 1e-06 kW
Example: convert 15 mJ/s to kW:
15 mJ/s = 15 × 1e-06 kW = 1.5e-05 kW

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.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 millijoule/second in kilowatt?
1 millijoule/second (mJ/s) = 1e-06 kilowatt (kW).
How do you convert millijoule/second to kilowatt?
Multiply the millijoule/second value by 1e-06. For example, 25 mJ/s × 1e-06 = 2.5e-05 kW.
What is 10 millijoule/second in kilowatt?
10 mJ/s = 1e-05 kW.
Which unit is larger, the millijoule/second or the kilowatt?
The kilowatt is the larger unit: 1 mJ/s equals only 1e-06 kW.
