Convert calorie (IT)/second to kilocalorie (th)/hour
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/second [cal/s] to kilocalorie (th)/hour [kcal(th)/h], or Convert kilocalorie (th)/hour to calorie (IT)/second.
1 cal/s = 3602.40918471 kcal(th)/h. To convert calorie (IT)/second to kilocalorie (th)/hour, multiply the value by 3602.40918471; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal(th)/h = 0.000277592008216 cal/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Calorie (It)/second
Calorie per second (cal/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The calorie, originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius, has been used in various contexts including nutrition and thermodynamics. The use of calories per second as a power unit became common in scientific and engineering fields to quantify energy transfer rates before the adoption of the SI unit watt.
Current Use
Calorie per second is primarily used in scientific research, thermodynamics, and certain engineering applications to measure power, especially in contexts where energy transfer in calories is relevant. It is less common in everyday use, having been largely replaced by the watt (W) in SI units.
Kilocalorie (Th)/hour
A kilocalorie (th)/hour (kcal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per hour is transferred or converted.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adapted into various units including the thermochemical kilocalorie (kcal(th)). Its use in power measurement, such as kcal(th)/h, is primarily for specialized scientific and engineering applications, integrating energy units with time to express power.
Current Use
The kcal(th)/h unit is used in contexts requiring the measurement of energy transfer rates in thermochemical terms, such as in thermal engineering, calorimetry, and energy efficiency assessments where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
