Convert calorie (IT)/minute to kilocalorie (IT)/minute
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/minute [cal/min] to kilocalorie (IT)/minute [kcal/min], or Convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute to calorie (IT)/minute.
1 cal/min = 1 kcal/min. To convert calorie (IT)/minute to kilocalorie (IT)/minute, multiply the value by 1; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal/min = 1 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 = 1 kcal/min
- 1 kcal/min = 1 cal/min
- 10 cal/min = 10 kcal/min
- 100 cal/min = 100 kcal/min
How to Convert Calorie (It)/minute to Kilocalorie (It)/minute
1 cal/min = 1 kcal/min
Example: convert 15 cal/min to kcal/min:
15 cal/min = 15 × 1 kcal/min = 15 kcal/min

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.
Kilocalorie (It)/minute
A unit of power representing the energy expended or transferred at a rate of one kilocalorie per minute.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie (kcal) has historically been used to measure energy in food and nutrition, while the minute as a time unit has been standard in timekeeping. Combining these, kcal/min was used to quantify power, especially in contexts like metabolic rates and energy expenditure, before the widespread adoption of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
The kcal/min is primarily used in fields such as physiology and sports science to express rates of energy expenditure, though it is less common today with the adoption of the watt (W) as the standard SI unit of power.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 calorie (IT)/minute in kilocalorie (IT)/minute?
1 calorie (IT)/minute (cal/min) = 1 kilocalorie (IT)/minute (kcal/min).
How do you convert calorie (IT)/minute to kilocalorie (IT)/minute?
Multiply the calorie (IT)/minute value by 1. For example, 25 cal/min × 1 = 25 kcal/min.
What is 10 calorie (IT)/minute in kilocalorie (IT)/minute?
10 cal/min = 10 kcal/min.
Which unit is larger, the calorie (IT)/minute or the kilocalorie (IT)/minute?
The kilocalorie (IT)/minute is the larger unit: 1 cal/min equals only 1 kcal/min.
