How to convert joules to kilowatt hours (J to kWh)
The formula for converting joules to kilowatt hours is: kWh = J × 0.00000027777777777778. To calculate the joule value in kilowatt hours first substitute the joule value into the preceding formula, and then perform the calculation. If we wanted to calculate 1 joule in kilowatt hours we follow these steps:
kWh = J × 0.00000027777777777778
kWh = 1 × 0.00000027777777777778
kWh = 0.00000027777777777778
In other words, 1 joule is equal to 0.00000027777777777778 kilowatt hours.
Example Conversion
Let's take a look at an example. The step-by-step process to convert 6 joules to kilowatt hours is:
- Understand the conversion formula: kWh = J × 0.00000027777777777778
- Substitute the required value. In this case we substitute 6 for J so the formula becomes: kWh = 6 × 0.00000027777777777778
- Calculate the result using the provided values. In our example the result is: 6 × 0.00000027777777777778 = 0.00000166666666666668 kWh
In summary, 6 joules is equal to 0.00000166666666666668 kilowatt hours.
Converting kilowatt hours to joules
In order to convert the other way around i.e. kilowatt hours to joules, you would use the following formula: J = kWh × 3600000. To convert kilowatt hours to joules first substitute the kilowatt hour value into the above formula, and then execute the calculation. If we wanted to calculate 1 kilowatt hour in joules we follow these steps:
J = kWh × 3600000
J = 1 × 3600000
J = 3600000
Or in other words, 1 kilowatt hour is equal to 3600000 joules.
