Convert calorie (IT)/minute to gigajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/minute [cal/min] to gigajoule/second [GJ/s], or Convert gigajoule/second to calorie (IT)/minute.
1 cal/min = 6.978e-08 GJ/s. To convert calorie (IT)/minute to gigajoule/second, multiply the value by 6.978e-08; to go the other way, divide by it (1 GJ/s = 14330753.7976 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 = 6.978e-08 GJ/s
- 1 GJ/s = 14330753.7976 cal/min
- 10 cal/min = 6.978e-07 GJ/s
- 100 cal/min = 6.978e-06 GJ/s
How to Convert Calorie (It)/minute to Gigajoule/second
1 cal/min = 6.978e-08 GJ/s
Example: convert 15 cal/min to GJ/s:
15 cal/min = 15 × 6.978e-08 GJ/s = 1.0467e-06 GJ/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.
Gigajoule/second
A gigajoule per second (GJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one gigajoule of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The gigajoule per second emerged as a larger-scale unit of power measurement, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify high power levels, especially in energy production and consumption. It is derived from the SI unit joule and the prefix giga, combined with the second as the time unit.
Current Use
GJ/s is used in fields such as energy industry, power generation, and large-scale energy transfer analysis to express high power rates, often in the context of power plants, energy infrastructure, and large energy projects.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 calorie (IT)/minute in gigajoule/second?
1 calorie (IT)/minute (cal/min) = 6.978e-08 gigajoule/second (GJ/s).
How do you convert calorie (IT)/minute to gigajoule/second?
