Kilowatt-Hour (KWh) to Kilojoules (KJ) Conversion
To convert Kilowatt-hours (kWh) to Kilojoules (kJ), use the formula:
Conversion Formula
The relationship between kilowatt-hours and kilojoules can be expressed as:
KJ = KWh ร 3,600Alternatively, you can express it as:
E(KJ) = 3,600 ร E(KWh)Where:
- KJ = Kilojoules
- KWh = Kilowatt-hours
Example
If you have an energy amount of 5 KWh, the calculation would be:
KJ = 5 KWh ร 3,600 = 18,000 KJUsing the alternative formula:
E(KJ) = 3,600 ร 5 KWh = 18,000 KJKilowatt-hour (KWh)?
A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy that measures how much electricity is used over time. It represents the energy consumed when one kilowatt (1,000 watts) of power is used for one hour.
Kilojoule (KJ)
A kilojoule (KJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equal to 1,000 joules and is commonly used to measure energy in food and physical activities.
