This converter allows you to convert kilocalories per second [kcal/s] to metric horsepower [PS] or metric horsepower [PS] to kilocalories per second [kcal/s]. 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 second [kcal/s] ≈ 5.6925 metric horsepower [PS]1 metric horsepower [PS] ≈ 0.1757 kilocalories per second [kcal/s]

Convert kilocalories per second to metric horsepower

There are two simple ways to convert kilocalories per second [kcal/s] to metric horsepower [PS]. In the first calculation method, the value in kilocalories per second [kcal/s] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 0.1757. The second method multiplies the value in kilocalories per second [kcal/s] by the rounded conversion factor of 5.6925.

  • Metric horsepower [PS] ≈ kilocalories per second [kcal/s] ÷ 0.1757
  • Metric horsepower [PS] ≈ kilocalories per second [kcal/s] * 5.6925

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 second [kcal/s] to metric horsepower [PS] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Metric horsepower [PS] = kilocalories per second [kcal/s] ÷ 0.73549875 * 4.1868

Convert metric horsepower to kilocalories per second

Converting metric horsepower [PS] to kilocalories per second [kcal/s] 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 0.1757. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in metric horsepower [PS] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 5.6925.

  • Kilocalories per second [kcal/s] ≈ metric horsepower [PS] * 0.1757
  • Kilocalories per second [kcal/s] ≈ metric horsepower [PS] ÷ 5.6925

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 second [kcal/s] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Kilocalories per second [kcal/s] = metric horsepower [PS] * 0.73549875 ÷ 4.1868
