How to Convert Watt-hours (Wh) to Watts (W)
To convert watt-hours (Wh) to watts (W), you need to know the duration of time over which the energy was consumed. The relationship between watt-hours and watts is defined by the formula.
Wh to W Calculation Formula
The relationship between watt-hours and watts is expressed as:
W = Wh / hoursWhere:
- Wh = Watt-hours
- W = Watts
- hours = Time in hours
Example Calculation
If you have a total energy consumption of 600 Wh over 3 hours, the calculation would be:
W = 600 Wh / 3 hours = 200 WWatt-hours (Wh)
A watt-hour is a unit of energy that quantifies the total amount of energy consumed or produced over a period of time. It is derived from the product of power (in watts) and time (in hours. For more information, visit this TechTarget page.
Watts (W)
A watt is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy is generated or consumed. It is defined as one joule per second. Essentially, it indicates how much energy a device requires to function at any given moment.
