Convert calorie (IT)/minute to hectojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/minute [cal/min] to hectojoule/second [hJ/s], or Convert hectojoule/second to calorie (IT)/minute.
1 cal/min = 0.6978 hJ/s. To convert calorie (IT)/minute to hectojoule/second, multiply the value by 0.6978; to go the other way, divide by it (1 hJ/s = 1.43307537976 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 = 0.6978 hJ/s
- 1 hJ/s = 1.43307537976 cal/min
- 10 cal/min = 6.978 hJ/s
- 100 cal/min = 69.78 hJ/s
How to Convert Calorie (It)/minute to Hectojoule/second
1 cal/min = 0.6978 hJ/s
Example: convert 15 cal/min to hJ/s:
15 cal/min = 15 × 0.6978 hJ/s = 10.467 hJ/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.
Hectojoule/second
Hectojoule per second (hJ/s) is a unit of power representing one hundred joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The unit hJ/s is derived from the SI unit joule (J) and the metric prefix hecto- (h), used to express larger quantities of energy transfer rate, particularly in scientific and engineering contexts. It has been used as an alternative to watts in certain fields, though watts are more standard.
Current Use
Hectojoule per second is occasionally used in scientific and engineering applications to quantify power, especially in contexts where larger energy transfer rates are involved. However, the watt (W) remains the standard SI unit for power, and hJ/s is less common in everyday use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 calorie (IT)/minute in hectojoule/second?
1 calorie (IT)/minute (cal/min) = 0.6978 hectojoule/second (hJ/s).
How do you convert calorie (IT)/minute to hectojoule/second?
Multiply the calorie (IT)/minute value by 0.6978. For example, 25 cal/min × 0.6978 = 17.445 hJ/s.
