About Milliwatt
One milliwatt is one thousandth of a watt. Common in RF, fiber optics, and low-power electronics.
About Kilocalorie per Hour (thermochemical)
Kilocalories per hour is a thermal power rate using the thermochemical kilocalorie (4,184 J per kcal) spread over one hour.
How to convert milliwatts to kilocalories per hour (thermochemical)
1 milliwatt is equal to 0.0008604206501 kilocalorie per hour (thermochemical) when both are expressed in watt-equivalents:
1 mw = (0.001 W ÷ 1.1622222222222223 W) kcal_h = 0.0008604206501 kcal_h
Each milliwatt is defined as 0.001 W and each kilocalorie per hour (thermochemical) as 1.1622222222222223 W in this tool, so one mw equals 0.001 ÷ 1.1622222222222223 kcal_h = 0.0008604206501 kcal_h.
Let d(mw) be the numeric value in Milliwatt (mw), and d(kcal_h) the value in Kilocalorie per Hour (thermochemical) (kcal_h). Then:
d(kcal_h) = d(mw) × (0.001 / 1.1622222222222223)
Equivalently, divide by how many mw fit into one kcal_h (watts per kcal_h divided by watts per mw):
d(kcal_h) = d(mw) ÷ 1162.22222222222217
Or: kilocalorie per hour (thermochemical) = milliwatt ÷ 1162.22222222222217
Examples
Example #1: Convert 1 mw to kilocalorie per hour (thermochemical)
1 mw = 1 mw × (0.001/1.1622222222222223) kcal_h = 0.0008604207 kcal_h
1 mw = 1 mw ÷ 1162.22222222222217 = 0.0008604207 kcal_h
Intermediate watts: 0.001 W
Example #2: Convert 10 mw to kilocalorie per hour (thermochemical)
10 mw = 10 mw × (0.001/1.1622222222222223) kcal_h = 0.0086042065 kcal_h
10 mw = 10 mw ÷ 1162.22222222222217 = 0.0086042065 kcal_h
Intermediate watts: 0.01 W
Summary
To convert Milliwatt to Kilocalorie per Hour (thermochemical), multiply the value in mw by the ratio of watts per mw divided by watts per kcal_h. Equivalently: value_kcal_h = value_mw × (0.001 / 1.1622222222222223). Numerically, 1 mw equals 0.0008604206500956023 kcal_h.
Relationship context
You are converting between SI / decimal power (watts and prefixes) (Milliwatts) and thermal engineering rates (BTU/h, kcal/h) (Kilocalories per Hour (thermochemical)). All linear values are mapped through watts first. The numeric factor is 8.604207e-4.
