What is a dekawatt (daW)?

A dekawatt is a metric power unit equal to 10 watts, used to measure energy transfer or work done per unit time.

What does megajoule per second (MJ/s) represent?

Megajoule per second is a power unit that equals one million joules transferred every second, equivalent to one megawatt.

Why convert from dekawatt to megajoule per second?

Converting from dekawatt to megajoule per second helps translate power levels of small devices into the scale of large industrial power outputs.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value in dekawatts (daW) into the input field.
Select 'dekawatt [daW]' as the unit you are converting from.
Choose 'megajoule/second [MJ/s]' as the unit you want to convert to.
Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in MJ/s.

Key Features

Converts dekawatt (daW) to megajoule per second (MJ/s) accurately.
Supports power measurements ranging from small equipment to large power plants.
Browser-based and easy to use with simple input and selection.

Examples

10 daW equals 0.0001 MJ/s
50 daW equals 0.0005 MJ/s

Common Use Cases

Specifying output power for small electric motors, pumps, or appliances in engineering.
Translating power supply ratings or LED lighting power expressed in dekawatts.
Comparing small-device power levels with large-scale industrial or power plant outputs.
Describing thermal power or heat transfer rates in industrial boilers and furnaces.
Managing large-scale industrial energy consumption and district heating measurements.

Tips & Best Practices

Use this conversion when comparing small-scale power outputs to large industrial units.
Ensure careful handling of small decimal values resulting from the conversion.
Apply this tool mostly for scaling up power values or expressing low power levels precisely in MJ/s.

Limitations

Because dekawatt values convert to very small megajoule/second amounts, it is most useful when scaling up power measurements.
Precision must be maintained when dealing with very small decimal results from the conversion.
