Wattage Price Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate wattage price is:

\[ \text{WP} = \frac{\text{CP}}{\text{W} \times \text{T}} \]

Where:

$\text{WP}$ is the Wattage Price (\$/Whr)
$\text{CP}$ is the total cost of power (\$)
$\text{W}$ is the wattage usage (W)
$\text{T}$ is the time (hrs)

What is Wattage Price?

Wattage Price refers to the cost per watt-hour of electricity usage. This metric helps in understanding and comparing the cost efficiency of different electrical appliances and systems. It takes into account the total cost of power, the wattage usage, and the duration of usage.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Total Cost of Power (CP) = $10
Wattage Usage (W) = 100 W
Time (T) = 50 hrs

Using the formula:

\[ \text{WP} = \frac{10}{100 \times 50} = 0.002 \text{ \$/Whr} \]

The Wattage Price is $0.002 per Whr.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Total Cost of Power (CP) = $15
Wattage Usage (W) = 150 W
Time (T) = 30 hrs

Using the formula:

\[ \text{WP} = \frac{15}{150 \times 30} = 0.0033 \text{ \$/Whr} \]

The Wattage Price is $0.0033 per Whr.
