Converting watts (W) to kilocalories per hour (kcal/h) is useful for various scientific and practical applications, including energy consumption analysis and nutritional assessments. This page provides a clear guide on how to perform this conversion and its applications.

The conversion between watts and kilocalories per hour can be done using the following formula:

Kilocalories per Hour (kcal/h) = Watts (W) × 0.860

Where 1 watt is approximately equal to 0.860 kilocalories per hour.

To convert a value from watts to kilocalories per hour, multiply the number of watts by 0.860. Use the following formula:

Kilocalories per Hour (kcal/h) = Watts (W) × 0.860

Let’s convert 100 watts to kilocalories per hour:

100 W × 0.860 = 86 kcal/h

Therefore, 100 watts is equivalent to approximately 86 kilocalories per hour.
