How to convert kw to hp?

To convert kilowatts (kW) to horsepower (hp), you can use the following conversion factor:

1 kW = 1.341 hp

So, to convert from kilowatts to horsepower, you multiply the kilowatt value by 1.341.

The formula is:

Horsepower (hp) = Kilowatts (kW) × 1.341

For example, if you want to convert 10 kW to horsepower, you would do:

10 kW × 1.341 = 13.41 hp

Therefore, 10 kilowatts is equal to 13.41 horsepower.

Conversely, to convert from horsepower to kilowatts, you would use the inverse of the conversion factor, which is:

1 hp = 0.7457 kW

So, the formula to convert from horsepower to kilowatts would be:

Kilowatts (kW) = Horsepower (hp) × 0.7457
