Convert milliwatt to calorie (th)/hour
Please provide values below to convert milliwatt [mW] to calorie (th)/hour [cal(th)/h], or Convert calorie (th)/hour to milliwatt.
1 mW = 0.000860420651741 cal(th)/h. To convert milliwatt to calorie (th)/hour, multiply the value by 0.000860420651741; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal(th)/h = 1162.22222 mW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Milliwatt
A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt, used to measure small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The milliwatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a convenient unit for measuring low power levels, especially in electronics and telecommunications, with its usage expanding alongside the adoption of the watt as the standard power unit.
Current Use
Milliwatts are commonly used today in electronics, audio equipment, and wireless communication devices to specify power levels, such as in battery-powered devices, LED brightness, and signal transmission power.
Calorie (Th)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of heat energy in calories transferred or used per hour.
History/Origin
The calorie, originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C, has been used in various contexts including nutrition and physics. The 'th' denotes the thermochemical calorie, an older standard. The unit cal(th)/h has been used historically in thermodynamics and heat transfer measurements.
Current Use
Today, cal(th)/h is rarely used in modern scientific contexts, having been largely replaced by SI units like watts. However, it may still appear in legacy systems or specialized fields involving heat transfer calculations.
