Convert nanowatt to calorie (IT)/hour
Please provide values below to convert nanowatt [nW] to calorie (IT)/hour [cal/h], or Convert calorie (IT)/hour to nanowatt.
1 nW = 8.5985e-10 cal/h. To convert nanowatt to calorie (IT)/hour, multiply the value by 8.5985e-10; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal/h = 1163000000 nW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 nW = 8.5985e-10 cal/h
- 1 cal/h = 1163000000 nW
- 10 nW = 8.59845227859e-09 cal/h
- 100 nW = 8.59845227859e-08 cal/h
How to Convert Nanowatt to Calorie (It)/hour
1 nW = 8.59845227858985e-10 cal/h
Example: convert 15 nW to cal/h:
15 nW = 15 × 8.59845227858985e-10 cal/h = 1.28976784178848e-08 cal/h

Nanowatt
A nanowatt (nW) is a unit of power equal to one billionth of a watt (10^-9 W).
History/Origin
The nanowatt is derived from the SI unit watt, with the prefix 'nano-' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very small power levels, especially in electronics and nanotechnology.
Current Use
Nanowatts are used in fields requiring precise measurement of tiny power quantities, such as in sensor technology, low-power electronics, and nanotechnology research.
Calorie (It)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal/h) is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or consumed over time.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and thermodynamics to quantify energy. The cal/h unit emerged in contexts where energy transfer rates were expressed in calories per hour, particularly in heating and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Cal/h is used in specific scientific and engineering applications, such as measuring heat transfer rates, metabolic rates, and in some thermal engineering contexts, although it is less common than SI units like watts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 nanowatt in calorie (IT)/hour?
1 nanowatt (nW) = 8.5985e-10 calorie (IT)/hour (cal/h).
How do you convert nanowatt to calorie (IT)/hour?
