Convert calorie (IT)/minute to decijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/minute [cal/min] to decijoule/second [dJ/s], or Convert decijoule/second to calorie (IT)/minute.
1 cal/min = 697.8 dJ/s. To convert calorie (IT)/minute to decijoule/second, multiply the value by 697.8; to go the other way, divide by it (1 dJ/s = 0.00143307537976 cal/min). 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/min = 697.8 dJ/s
- 1 dJ/s = 0.00143307537976 cal/min
- 10 cal/min = 6978 dJ/s
- 100 cal/min = 69780 dJ/s
How to Convert Calorie (It)/minute to Decijoule/second
1 cal/min = 697.8 dJ/s
Example: convert 15 cal/min to dJ/s:
15 cal/min = 15 × 697.8 dJ/s = 10467 dJ/s

Calorie (It)/minute
Calorie per minute (cal/min) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and energy measurement, with the 'calorie per minute' emerging as a unit to quantify energy transfer rates, especially in contexts like exercise and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Calorie per minute is used in fields such as sports science, physiology, and energy expenditure analysis to measure the rate of caloric energy transfer or consumption over time.
Decijoule/second
A decijoule per second (dJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one-tenth of a joule per second, representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion.
History/Origin
The decijoule is a decimal submultiple of the joule, introduced as part of the metric system to facilitate measurements at smaller scales. Its usage in power calculations, such as decijoules per second, has been consistent with the adoption of SI units, though it is less common in modern practice.
Current Use
Decijoule per second is rarely used in contemporary contexts; power is more commonly expressed in watts (joules per second). When used, it typically appears in specialized scientific or engineering applications requiring fine-grained energy rate measurements at the deci level.
