Convert petawatt to kilojoule/minute
Please provide values below to convert petawatt [PW] to kilojoule/minute [kJ/min], or Convert kilojoule/minute to petawatt.
1 PW = 6.0000e+13 kJ/min. To convert petawatt to kilojoule/minute, multiply the value by 6.0000e+13; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kJ/min = 1.6667e-14 PW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 PW = 6.0000e+13 kJ/min
- 1 kJ/min = 1.6667e-14 PW
- 10 PW = 6.0000e+14 kJ/min
- 100 PW = 6.0000e+15 kJ/min
How to Convert Petawatt to Kilojoule/minute
1 PW = 59999999988000 kJ/min
Example: convert 15 PW to kJ/min:
15 PW = 15 × 59999999988000 kJ/min = 899999999820000 kJ/min

Petawatt
A petawatt (PW) is a unit of power equal to 10^15 watts, used to measure extremely high power levels.
History/Origin
The petawatt was introduced in the 1980s as part of the SI prefixes to describe ultra-high power outputs, particularly in laser physics and astrophysics research.
Current Use
Petawatts are primarily used in scientific research involving high-intensity lasers, astrophysics, and nuclear physics to quantify extremely large power outputs.
Kilojoule/minute
A kilojoule per minute (kJ/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in kilojoules transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per minute has been used as a unit of power in various scientific and engineering contexts, especially in fields where energy transfer rates are measured over time, though it is less common than watts. Its usage has been consistent with the adoption of the SI system, where energy is measured in joules and power in watts.
Current Use
Today, the kilojoule per minute is primarily used in specialized fields such as nutrition, physics, and engineering to express energy transfer rates, particularly when dealing with larger quantities of energy over time, although the watt remains the standard SI unit for power.
