How it works
Enter a value, select Metric horsepower and Kilowatt, then MimiFile calculates the result instantly using the conversion model for this category.
Convert metric horsepower (PS) to kilowatts (kW) for vehicle, engine, motor and equipment power ratings.
Enter a value, select Metric horsepower and Kilowatt, then MimiFile calculates the result instantly using the conversion model for this category.
Multiply PS by exactly 0.73549875 to get kW. Metric horsepower is not mechanical horsepower: MimiFile stores PS as 735.49875 W and mechanical hp separately at about 745.699872 W.
Power uses a base-unit scale model.
kW = PS × 0.73549875. One metric horsepower is exactly 735.49875 watts in MimiFile's power registry.
PS (metric horsepower) and mechanical hp are different units. Using the mechanical-hp factor would overstate the kilowatt result by about 1.4%, so check which horsepower definition a specification uses.
kW is a unit of power. It is not the same as kWh, which measures energy accumulated over time.
Useful when a specification, map, recipe, technical document or device uses Kilowatt while your source value is in Metric horsepower.
