Kilowatt-Hour to Kilowatt Converter
How to Convert Kilowatt-hours (kWh) to Kilowatts (kW)
To convert kilowatt-hours to kilowatts, you need to know the duration (in hours) over which the energy was consumed. The formula is:
kWh to kW Calculation Formula
The relationship between kilowatt-hours and kilowatts can be expressed as:
kW = kWh / hoursWhere:
- kWh = Kilowatt-hours
- kW = Kilowatts
- hours = Time in hours
Example Calculation
If you have a total energy consumption of 10 kWh over 5 hours, the calculation would be:
kW = 10 kWh / 5 hours = 2 kWKilowatt-hours (kWh)
A kilowatt-hour is a unit of energy that represents the total amount of energy consumed when a power of one kilowatt is used for one hour. It quantifies energy usage over time. For instance, if a 1 kW appliance runs for 3 hours, it will consume 3 kWh of energy. For more information, visit this ScienceDirect page.
Kilowatts (kW)
A kilowatt is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy is generated or consumed. It is equivalent to 1,000 watts. This unit is commonly used to describe the power rating of electrical devices, such as appliances and machinery.
