1 hp (UK) = 0.7457 kilowatt (kW).
2.0 horsepower = 1 491.39974 watts
1 kW is equal to about 3,412.14 BTU/hour.
1 megawatt = 1 000 kilowatts
That depends on how long the 1 kW is applied. Please note that kW is a unit of power, not a unit of energy.In general, 1 kW of electrical energy can be converted into 1 kW of heat - if used in a heater. With a heat pump, 1 kW of electrical energy can, in fact, pump several kW of heat energy.
1 kilowatt (kW) equals 1.3410220888 brake horsepower (BHP). Therefore, 100 kW equals 134.10220888 BHP and 1 BHP equals 0.745699872 kW.
1 Horsepower equals 746 watt, or 0.746 kilowatt. To convert horsepower to kilowatt, one has to multiply the amount of horsepower by 0.746. For example: 500 hp = (500*0.746) kW = 373 kW
1 KW = 1.3410220895950277 HP
1 hp (UK) = 0.7457 kilowatt (kW).
3.5 kw
1 hp =746watts
1.8 kilowatts = 2.4 hp <<>> The conversion is 746 watts are equal to 1 horsepower. To change 1.8 kilowatts to watts is 1.8 x 1000 = 1800 watts. Therefore 1800/746 = 2.4 horsepower. This is how the answer above was obtianed.
1 Kilowatt = 1.341 horsepower
1 hp equals 746 Watts. You do the math. Update: There are a few different conversion rates for horsepower (metric, electric, etc), but approximately 1 watt = 0.0134 horsepower. Therefore 2500W = approx 3.35 horsepower, or 3.4 using metric horsepower. For future conversion questions use http://www.onlineconversion.com/ (not a plug, actually a useful site)
it has 3 horsepower witch makes it do 10 kw of work
12kW equates to about 16.1hp
1 kilowatts = 1,000 watts 500kw=500,000w
