Convert petawatt to nanojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert petawatt [PW] to nanojoule/second [nJ/s], or Convert nanojoule/second to petawatt.
1 PW = 1.0000e+24 nJ/s. To convert petawatt to nanojoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e+24; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nJ/s = 1.0000e-24 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 = 1.0000e+24 nJ/s
- 1 nJ/s = 1.0000e-24 PW
- 10 PW = 1.0000e+25 nJ/s
- 100 PW = 1.0000e+26 nJ/s
How to Convert Petawatt to Nanojoule/second
1 PW = 1e+24 nJ/s
Example: convert 15 PW to nJ/s:
15 PW = 15 × 1e+24 nJ/s = 1.5e+25 nJ/s

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.
Nanojoule/second
A nanojoule per second (nJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one nanojoule of energy per second.
History/Origin
The nanojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'nano' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It is used in contexts requiring very small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering fields.
Current Use
The nJ/s is used in scientific research, nanotechnology, and precise energy transfer measurements where extremely low power levels are involved, often in the context of nanoscale systems or experiments.
