Convert calorie (th)/hour to terajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert calorie (th)/hour [cal(th)/h] to terajoule/second [TJ/s], or Convert terajoule/second to calorie (th)/hour.
1 cal(th)/h = 1.1622e-12 TJ/s. To convert calorie (th)/hour to terajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.1622e-12; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TJ/s = 860420651741 cal(th)/h). 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(th)/h = 1.1622e-12 TJ/s
- 1 TJ/s = 860420651741 cal(th)/h
- 10 cal(th)/h = 1.1622e-11 TJ/s
- 100 cal(th)/h = 1.1622e-10 TJ/s
How to Convert Calorie (Th)/hour to Terajoule/second
1 cal(th)/h = 1.16222222e-12 TJ/s
Example: convert 15 cal(th)/h to TJ/s:
15 cal(th)/h = 15 × 1.16222222e-12 TJ/s = 1.74333333e-11 TJ/s

Calorie (Th)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of heat energy in calories transferred or used per hour.
History/Origin
The calorie, originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C, has been used in various contexts including nutrition and physics. The 'th' denotes the thermochemical calorie, an older standard. The unit cal(th)/h has been used historically in thermodynamics and heat transfer measurements.
Current Use
Today, cal(th)/h is rarely used in modern scientific contexts, having been largely replaced by SI units like watts. However, it may still appear in legacy systems or specialized fields involving heat transfer calculations.
Terajoule/second
A terajoule per second (TJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillion joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The terajoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'tera' indicating a factor of 10^12. It is used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very high power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production.
Current Use
TJ/s is used to quantify extremely high power outputs, such as in large-scale energy systems, astrophysical phenomena, and nuclear reactions, where conventional units like watts are insufficient to express the magnitude.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 calorie (th)/hour in terajoule/second?
1 calorie (th)/hour (cal(th)/h) = 1.1622e-12 terajoule/second (TJ/s).
How do you convert calorie (th)/hour to terajoule/second?
Multiply the calorie (th)/hour value by 1.1622e-12. For example, 25 cal(th)/h × 1.1622e-12 = 2.9056e-11 TJ/s.
What is 10 calorie (th)/hour in terajoule/second?
10 cal(th)/h = 1.1622e-11 TJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the calorie (th)/hour or the terajoule/second?
The terajoule/second is the larger unit: 1 cal(th)/h equals only 1.1622e-12 TJ/s.
