What is the Formula to convert Kilowatts to Decibel-watts?

The formula to convert given power from Kilowatts to Decibel-watts is:

Power(Decibel-watts) = 10 × Math.log(Power(Kilowatts) × 1e3) × Math.LOG10E

Substitute the given value of power in kilowatts, i.e., Power(Kilowatts) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the power in decibel-watts, i.e., Power(Decibel-watts).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a luxury electric car's motor generates 250 kilowatts (kW) of power.
Convert this power output from kilowatts to Decibel-watts.

Answer:

Given:

The power in kilowatts is:

Power(Kilowatts) = 250

Formula:

The formula to convert power from kilowatts to decibel-watts is:

Power(Decibel-watts) = 10 × Math.log(Power(Kilowatts) × 1e3) × Math.LOG10E

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Power(Kilowatts) = 250 in the above formula.

Power(Decibel-watts) = 10 × Math.log(250 × 1e3) × Math.LOG10E

Power(Decibel-watts) = 53.9794

Final Answer:

Therefore, 250 kW is equal to 53.9794 dBW.

The power is 53.9794 dBW, in decibel-watts.

2

Consider that a high-end gaming PC setup consumes 1 kilowatt (kW) of power.
Convert this power usage from kilowatts to Decibel-watts.

Answer:

Given:

The power in kilowatts is:

Power(Kilowatts) = 1

Formula:

The formula to convert power from kilowatts to decibel-watts is:

Power(Decibel-watts) = 10 × Math.log(Power(Kilowatts) × 1e3) × Math.LOG10E

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Power(Kilowatts) = 1 in the above formula.

Power(Decibel-watts) = 10 × Math.log(1 × 1e3) × Math.LOG10E

Power(Decibel-watts) = 30

Final Answer:

Therefore, 1 kW is equal to 30 dBW.

The power is 30 dBW, in decibel-watts.
