This converter allows you to convert kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] to metric horsepower [PS] or metric horsepower [PS] to kilojoules per hour [kJ/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 kilojoule per hour [kJ/h] ≈ 3.777 * 10-4 metric horsepower [PS]1 metric horsepower [PS] = 2,647.7955 kilojoules per hour [kJ/h]

Convert kilojoules per hour to metric horsepower

There are two simple ways to convert kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] to metric horsepower [PS]. In the first calculation method, the value in kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] is divided by 2,647.7955. The second method multiplies the value in kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] by the rounded conversion factor of 3.777 * 10-4.

  • Metric horsepower [PS] = kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] ÷ 2,647.7955
  • Metric horsepower [PS] ≈ kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] * 3.777 * 10-4

The calculation method with a rounded conversion value is more suitable for rough conversions from kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] to metric horsepower [PS], as the calculation result may contain rounding errors. Therefore, the variant with the exact conversion factor is more suitable.


Convert metric horsepower to kilojoules per hour

Converting metric horsepower [PS] to kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] is easy and can be done in two ways. The first method involves multiplication, whereby the value in metric horsepower [PS] is multiplied by 2,647.7955. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in metric horsepower [PS] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 3.777 * 10-4.

  • Kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] = metric horsepower [PS] * 2,647.7955
  • Kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] ≈ metric horsepower [PS] ÷ (3.777 * 10-4)

The rounded conversion value can cause rounding errors, resulting in inaccurate calculation results. To ensure that the conversion from metric horsepower [PS] to kilojoules per hour [kJ/h] produces the most accurate calculation result possible, the conversion should be performed using the exact conversion factor.
