Key Formulas
Kilowatt → Horsepower (mech)
hp = kW × 1.34102Horsepower (mech) → Kilowatt
kW = hp × 0.7457Watt → Kilowatt
kW = W × 0.001Kilowatt → Watt
W = kW × 1000Formula
MW = BTU/h × 0.000000293071One BTU per hour equals 0.000000293 megawatts. Since 1 MW = 1,000,000 W and 1 BTU/h = 0.293 W, the conversion is very small. Used in large HVAC system comparisons.
