kW to kWh Calculator



Kilowatt to Kilowatt Hour Conversion Calculator

Enter power in kilowatts:kW
Enter time in hours:hr
   
Energy result in kilowatt-hours:kWh


It is a conversion calculator which converts the power in Kilowatts and time in hours to the energy in Kilowatt-hours. It has two text fields and two buttons which perform different functions in the calculator. The first cell requires you to fill in the power in kilowatts. You can then enter the time in hours in the next cell before clicking the Calculate button.

The energy results in Kilowatt-hours will be projected in the platform below the two switch buttons. This calculator was programmed to perform conversions within the shortest time. It also gives accurate results depending on the units entered in the text fields.

The first step involves entering the power in Kilowatts (kW), then the time in hours before tapping on the Calculate button. It is important to note that the Power in Kilowatts cannot be converted directly to energy in Kilowatt-hours. The reason is that they are of different quantities and the conversion would require you to include the time in hours for the calculation to be valid. It means that all the text fields should be filled with the right units of kilowatts and time in hours.

For example,
If you entered the power in Kilowatts as 10 (kW) and time in hours as (2hrs.), then the energy result in Kilowatt-hours will be 20 (kWh). You can follow the same procedure in case you need to perform new calculations.

The Reset button will be useful as it erases all data in the respective text fields. This calculator is fast in its operations and can handle several conversions in lesser time. However, it only performs a single conversion at a time which requires you to clear the text fields using the Reset button if you need to convert other units in Kilowatts.

There are formulas which the calculator utilizes in performing the calculations. It has been programmed to work efficiently in delivering the results with a single click of the Calculate Button.

Calculation of Kilowatt to Kilowatt-hours
E (kWh) = P (kW) x t (hr.), which means that the energy in Kilowatt-hours is calculated by multiplying the power in Kilowatts by the time in hours.

For example,
If the power in kilowatts is 50 (kW) and the time in hours is 11 (hrs.), what will be the energy in Kilowatt hours?

Solution
E (kWh) = 50 (kW) x 11 (hr.) = 550 Kilowatt-hours.

The converter has made calculations easier as it is faster and delivers accurate information.
