Kilowatts to BHP Converter
KW to BHP Conversion
It is a conversion calculator that converts the power in kilowatts (kW) to brake horsepower (BHP). This converter is reliable as it gives accurate results depending on the input values. Use the blank text field to enter the power value in Kilowatts then initiate the conversion by pressing the ‘Convert' button.
The results in BHP are displayed below the two controls at the bottom platform of the calculator. The ‘Reset' button performs an independent function of the calculator. It is used to erase all the previous calculations from the converter with a single click. It comes in handy when you want to carry out new calculations.
For example;
Convert 2000 Kilowatts to BHP
Solution
The first step of using this calculator is to enter the value in Kilowatts (2000) in the blank text field. Click the ‘Convert' button to initiate the conversion and the result in brake horsepower will be; 2682.0441777 BHP.
You can always use the same method when converting new values in Kilowatts. Note that this converter can only perform conversions from Kilowatts to brake horsepower. If your values are in brake horsepower then we recommend you use the BHP to kW converter.
Formula of converting kW to BHP
This converter uses a simple method in executing the conversions.
1 hp = 745.699872 W = 0.745699872 kW, which means that one mechanical brake horsepower is equivalent to 0.745699872 Kilowatts.
Therefore, the power conversion of kilowatts to mechanical brake horsepower will be given by;
P (hp) = P (kW) / 0.745699872
Using the above example;
Convert 2000 Kilowatts to brake horsepower
Calculation
= 2000 / 0.745699872
= 2682.0441777 hp
The mechanical brake horsepower to kilowatts conversion table is also used to give the conversions of common values from kilowatts to brake horsepower on a scale of 0.1 kW to 1000 kW.
