Megacalories to Watt-hours Conversion
Enter the energy in megacalories below to get the value converted to watt-hours.
How to Convert Megacalories to Watt-hours
To convert a megacalorie measurement to a watt-hour measurement, multiply the energy by the conversion ratio.
Since one megacalorie is equal to 1,162.222222 watt-hours, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The energy in watt-hours is equal to the megacalories multiplied by 1,162.222222.
Megacalories and watt-hours are both units used to measure energy. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Megacalories
One megacalorie is equal to 1,000,000 calories, which are the heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water from 14.5 to 15.5 degrees Celsius. One megacalorie is equal to 4.184 megajoules.
Megacalories can be abbreviated as Mcal; for example, 1 megacalorie can be written as 1 Mcal.
Watt-hours
The watt-hour is a measure of electrical energy equal to one watt of power over a one hour period.
Watt-hours are usually abbreviated as Wh, although the formally adopted expression is W·h. The abbreviation W h is also sometimes used. For example, 1 watt-hour can be written as 1 Wh, 1 W·h, or 1 W h.
In formal expressions, the centered dot (·) or space is used to separate units used to indicate multiplication in an expression and to avoid conflicting prefixes being misinterpreted as a unit symbol.[1]
