  2. Kilowatt-hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilowatt-hour

    One kilowatt-hour per year equals about 114.08 milliwatts applied constantly during one year. The energy content of a battery is usually expressed indirectly by its capacity in ampere-hours; to convert ampere-hour (Ah) to watt-hours (Wh), the ampere-hour value must be multiplied by the voltage of the power source. This value is approximate ...

  3. Module:Convert/documentation/conversion data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:Convert/...

    The conversion procedure for some units (for example, the Mach unit of speed) are built into Module:Convert as they are too complex to be specified in a table. That is indicated by entering a code (which must be the same as used in the module) in the Extra column.

  4. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    In terms of electromagnetism, one watt is the rate at which electrical work is performed when a current of one ampere (A) flows across an electrical potential difference of one volt (V), meaning the watt is equivalent to the volt-ampere (the latter unit, however, is used for a different quantity from the real power of an electrical circuit).

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    Conversion of units is the conversion of the unit of measurement in which a quantity is expressed, typically through a multiplicative conversion factor that changes the unit without changing the quantity. This is also often loosely taken to include replacement of a quantity with a corresponding quantity that describes the same physical property.

  6. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    The base value should only be a magnitude, while the per-unit value is a phasor. The phase angles of complex power, voltage, current, impedance, etc., are not affected by the conversion to per unit values. The purpose of using a per-unit system is to simplify conversion between different transformers.

  7. Gasoline gallon equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_gallon_equivalent

    In the most common calculation, that is, the BTU value of pure gasoline vs gasoline with 10% ethanol, the latter has just over 96% BTU value of pure gasoline. Gasoline BTU varies relating to the Reid vapor pressure (causing easier vaporization in winter blends containing ethanol (ethanol is difficult to start a vehicle on when it is cold out ...

  8. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    where is the armature current of the machine (SI unit: ampere). is primarily used to calculate the armature current for a given torque demand: = The SI units for the torque constant are newton meters per ampere (N·m/A).

  9. Power plant efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_plant_efficiency

    To express the efficiency of a generator or power plant as a percentage, invert the value if dimensionless notation or same unit are used. For example: A heat rate value of 5 gives an efficiency factor of 20%. A heat rate value of 2 kWh/kWh gives an efficiency factor of 50%. A heat rate value of 4 MJ/MJ gives an efficiency factor of 25%.
