Kilowatt (kW) is the unit commonly used to express the power of an engine.
- The power of an engine is the work done by the engine in one unit of time.
⇒ P = WD / t
- We know that the SI unit of Work done is Joules (J) and of time is seconds (s).
- So the SI unit of power is J/s or Js⁻¹.
- The SI unit of power was adopted as Watt (W) after the renowned scientist James Watt such that 1 J/s = 1 W.
- The work done by engines is very large. So instead of watts, their power is expressed in kilowatts.
- 1000 W = 1kW
