  1. 1 kcal/h = 0.00116222222222 kW
  2. 1 × 0.00116222222222 = 0.00116222222222 kW

How to convert kilocalories per hour to kilowatts

1 kcal/h = 0.00116222222222 kW, so multiply by 0.00116222222222 to go from kilocalories per hour to kilowatts. Going the other way, 1 kW = 860.420650096 kcal/h.

kW = kcal/h × 0.00116222222222
kcal/h = kW × 860.420650096

Worked example:

1 kcal/h = 0.00116222222222 kW
5 × 0.00116222222222 = 0.00581111111111 kW
