Convert milliwatt to kilocalorie (th)/hour
Please provide values below to convert milliwatt [mW] to kilocalorie (th)/hour [kcal(th)/h], or Convert kilocalorie (th)/hour to milliwatt.
1 mW = 0.000860420651741 kcal(th)/h. To convert milliwatt to kilocalorie (th)/hour, multiply the value by 0.000860420651741; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal(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.
Kilocalorie (Th)/hour
A kilocalorie (th)/hour (kcal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per hour is transferred or converted.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adapted into various units including the thermochemical kilocalorie (kcal(th)). Its use in power measurement, such as kcal(th)/h, is primarily for specialized scientific and engineering applications, integrating energy units with time to express power.
Current Use
The kcal(th)/h unit is used in contexts requiring the measurement of energy transfer rates in thermochemical terms, such as in thermal engineering, calorimetry, and energy efficiency assessments where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
