Convert calorie (IT)/minute to kilowatt
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/minute [cal/min] to kilowatt [kW], or Convert kilowatt to calorie (IT)/minute.
1 cal/min = 0.06978 kW. To convert calorie (IT)/minute to kilowatt, multiply the value by 0.06978; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kW = 14.3307537976 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 = 0.06978 kW
- 1 kW = 14.3307537976 cal/min
- 10 cal/min = 0.6978 kW
- 100 cal/min = 6.978 kW
How to Convert Calorie (It)/minute to Kilowatt
1 cal/min = 0.06978 kW
Example: convert 15 cal/min to kW:
15 cal/min = 15 × 0.06978 kW = 1.0467 kW

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.
Kilowatt
A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power equal to 1,000 watts, used to measure the rate of energy transfer or consumption.
History/Origin
The kilowatt was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a practical unit for measuring larger power outputs, especially in engineering and electrical contexts, and has been widely adopted since the 20th century.
Current Use
The kilowatt is commonly used today to specify the power output of engines, electrical appliances, and power generation facilities, as well as in billing for electricity consumption and capacity ratings.
