This converter allows you to convert kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] to metric horsepower [PS] or metric horsepower [PS] to kilocalories per hour [kcal/h]. Calculations are performed in both directions. The calculation result and the entered value are displayed with up to 20 decimal places for maximum accuracy.

1 kilocalorie per hour [kcal/h] ≈ 0.0016 metric horsepower [PS]1 metric horsepower [PS] ≈ 632.4151 kilocalories per hour [kcal/h]

Convert kilocalories per hour to metric horsepower

There are two simple ways to convert kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] to metric horsepower [PS]. In the first calculation method, the value in kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 632.4151. The second method multiplies the value in kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] by the rounded conversion factor of 0.0016.

  • Metric horsepower [PS] ≈ kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] ÷ 632.4151
  • Metric horsepower [PS] ≈ kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] * 0.0016

However, rounded conversion values are only suitable for rough conversions, as rounding errors can occur in the calculation result. The most accurate conversion of kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] to metric horsepower [PS] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Metric horsepower [PS] = kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] ÷ 2,647.7955 * 4.1868

Convert metric horsepower to kilocalories per hour

Converting metric horsepower [PS] to kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] is easy and can be done in two ways. The first method involves multiplication, in which the value in metric horsepower [PS] is multiplied by the rounded conversion factor of 632.4151. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in metric horsepower [PS] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 0.0016.

  • Kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] ≈ metric horsepower [PS] * 632.4151
  • Kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] ≈ metric horsepower [PS] ÷ 0.0016

However, rounded conversion values do not allow for exact calculations because rounding errors can occur in the calculation result. The most accurate conversion of metric horsepower [PS] to kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Kilocalories per hour [kcal/h] = metric horsepower [PS] * 2,647.7955 ÷ 4.1868
