Unit Description

Milliwatt (mW)

Definition

A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt (0.001 W). It represents very small amounts of power typically found in electronic devices, sensors, and low-power applications.

History

The milliwatt became important with the development of electronics and semiconductor technology. It provided an appropriate scale for describing the power consumption of transistors, integrated circuits, and electronic devices where power efficiency was crucial.

Current Use

Milliwatts are used in electronics for component power ratings, laser output specifications, radio frequency applications, and low-power device design. They're standard for electronic component specifications, sensor power consumption, and precision instruments.

Kilojoule per Hour (kJ/h)

Definition

Kilojoule per hour (kJ/h) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one kilojoule per hour. It provides a convenient scale for moderate power measurements in energy system analysis and thermal applications.

History

Kilojoule per hour developed as a practical unit for energy system analysis and thermal calculations. It provided an appropriate scale for describing power in terms of energy per time, particularly useful in heating and cooling system analysis.

Current Use

Kilojoule per hour is used in energy system analysis, thermal calculations, and heating/cooling applications. It's found in energy efficiency calculations, thermal system design, and applications where energy rates are more intuitive than electrical power units.
