Convert calorie (IT)/hour to kilocalorie (IT)/hour
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/hour [cal/h] to kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h], or Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to calorie (IT)/hour.
1 cal/h = 1 kcal/h. To convert calorie (IT)/hour to kilocalorie (IT)/hour, multiply the value by 1; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal/h = 1 cal/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cal/h = 1 kcal/h
- 1 kcal/h = 1 cal/h
- 10 cal/h = 10 kcal/h
- 100 cal/h = 100 kcal/h
How to Convert Calorie (It)/hour to Kilocalorie (It)/hour
1 cal/h = 1 kcal/h
Example: convert 15 cal/h to kcal/h:
15 cal/h = 15 × 1 kcal/h = 15 kcal/h

Calorie (It)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal/h) is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or consumed over time.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and thermodynamics to quantify energy. The cal/h unit emerged in contexts where energy transfer rates were expressed in calories per hour, particularly in heating and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Cal/h is used in specific scientific and engineering applications, such as measuring heat transfer rates, metabolic rates, and in some thermal engineering contexts, although it is less common than SI units like watts.
Kilocalorie (It)/hour
Kilocalorie per hour (kcal/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories is transferred or converted per hour.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adopted as a unit of energy. Its use in power measurement, such as kcal/h, emerged in contexts like thermal and caloric power calculations, especially in fields related to heating and energy transfer.
Current Use
kcal/h is used in applications involving thermal power, such as heating systems, calorimetry, and energy transfer calculations where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 calorie (IT)/hour in kilocalorie (IT)/hour?
1 calorie (IT)/hour (cal/h) = 1 kilocalorie (IT)/hour (kcal/h).
How do you convert calorie (IT)/hour to kilocalorie (IT)/hour?
Multiply the calorie (IT)/hour value by 1. For example, 25 cal/h × 1 = 25 kcal/h.
What is 10 calorie (IT)/hour in kilocalorie (IT)/hour?
10 cal/h = 10 kcal/h.
Which unit is larger, the calorie (IT)/hour or the kilocalorie (IT)/hour?
The kilocalorie (IT)/hour is the larger unit: 1 cal/h equals only 1 kcal/h.
