Formula
Formula
kW = kgf·m/s × 0.00980665
Multiply any value in kilograms-force metre per second by 0.00980665 to obtain the value in kilowatts.
Worked example
Convert 10000 kgf·m/s to kW.
- 01Start with 10000 kgf·m/s.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10000 × 0.00980665 = 98.0665 kW.
Result10000 kgf·m/s = 98.0665 kW

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from kgf·m/s to kW?
1 kgf·m/s equals 0.00980665 kW. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms-force metre per second by 0.00980665.
How do I convert 1 kgf·m/s to kW?
1 kgf·m/s = 0.00980665 kW. For any value, multiply by 0.00980665.
How do I convert kW back to kgf·m/s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 101.9716. So 1 kW = 101.972 kgf·m/s.
When would I need to convert kilogram-force metre per second to kilowatt?
Power conversions are common when comparing motor ratings (often kW or hp), thermal duty (BTU/hr or kW), and utility consumption in mixed-unit projects.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
