Convert milliwatt to calorie (th)/second
Please provide values below to convert milliwatt [mW] to calorie (th)/second [cal(th)/s], or Convert calorie (th)/second to milliwatt.
1 mW = 2.39005736138e-07 cal(th)/s. To convert milliwatt to calorie (th)/second, multiply the value by 2.39005736138e-07; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal(th)/s = 4184000 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)/second
Calorie (th)/second (cal(th)/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which thermal calories are transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The calorie (th), or thermochemical calorie, was historically used to quantify energy in thermodynamics and nutrition. Its use in power measurement, such as cal(th)/s, emerged in scientific contexts to express thermal energy transfer rates before the adoption of the watt as the standard SI unit.
Current Use
Today, cal(th)/s is rarely used in scientific practice, having been largely replaced by watts (W). It may still appear in specialized fields or historical references related to thermal energy transfer rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 milliwatt in calorie (th)/second?
1 milliwatt (mW) = 2.39005736138e-07 calorie (th)/second (cal(th)/s).
How do you convert milliwatt to calorie (th)/second?
Multiply the milliwatt value by 2.39005736138e-07. For example, 25 mW × 2.39005736138e-07 = 5.97514340344e-06 cal(th)/s.
