kW to bhp Calculator

Calculate Boiler Horsepower from Kilowatts



Formula

The formula to convert kilowatts to boiler horsepower is:

\[ bhp = \frac{kW}{9.8095} \]

Definition

Kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power equal to 1,000 watts. Boiler horsepower (bhp) is a unit of power used to measure the output of boilers, equal to approximately 9.8095 kilowatts.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ bhp = \frac{50}{9.8095} = 5.098 \]
