Convert nanowatt to kilocalorie (IT)/minute
Please provide values below to convert nanowatt [nW] to kilocalorie (IT)/minute [kcal/min], or Convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute to nanowatt.
1 nW = 1.4331e-11 kcal/min. To convert nanowatt to kilocalorie (IT)/minute, multiply the value by 1.4331e-11; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal/min = 69780000000 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 = 1.4331e-11 kcal/min
- 1 kcal/min = 69780000000 nW
- 10 nW = 1.4331e-10 kcal/min
- 100 nW = 1.43307537976e-09 kcal/min
How to Convert Nanowatt to Kilocalorie (It)/minute
1 nW = 1.43307537976498e-11 kcal/min
Example: convert 15 nW to kcal/min:
15 nW = 15 × 1.43307537976498e-11 kcal/min = 2.14961306964746e-10 kcal/min

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.
Kilocalorie (It)/minute
A unit of power representing the energy expended or transferred at a rate of one kilocalorie per minute.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie (kcal) has historically been used to measure energy in food and nutrition, while the minute as a time unit has been standard in timekeeping. Combining these, kcal/min was used to quantify power, especially in contexts like metabolic rates and energy expenditure, before the widespread adoption of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
The kcal/min is primarily used in fields such as physiology and sports science to express rates of energy expenditure, though it is less common today with the adoption of the watt (W) as the standard SI unit of power.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 nanowatt in kilocalorie (IT)/minute?
1 nanowatt (nW) = 1.4331e-11 kilocalorie (IT)/minute (kcal/min).
How do you convert nanowatt to kilocalorie (IT)/minute?
