Convert calorie (th)/second to dekajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert calorie (th)/second [cal(th)/s] to dekajoule/second [daJ/s], or Convert dekajoule/second to calorie (th)/second.
1 cal(th)/s = 418.4 daJ/s. To convert calorie (th)/second to dekajoule/second, multiply the value by 418.4; to go the other way, divide by it (1 daJ/s = 0.00239005736138 cal(th)/s). 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)/s = 418.4 daJ/s
- 1 daJ/s = 0.00239005736138 cal(th)/s
- 10 cal(th)/s = 4184 daJ/s
- 100 cal(th)/s = 41840 daJ/s
How to Convert Calorie (Th)/second to Dekajoule/second

Calorie (Th)/second
Calorie (th)/second (cal(th)/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which thermal calories are transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The calorie (th), or thermochemical calorie, was historically used to quantify energy in thermodynamics and nutrition. Its use in power measurement, such as cal(th)/s, emerged in scientific contexts to express thermal energy transfer rates before the adoption of the watt as the standard SI unit.
Current Use
Today, cal(th)/s is rarely used in scientific practice, having been largely replaced by watts (W). It may still appear in specialized fields or historical references related to thermal energy transfer rates.
Dekajoule/second
Dekajoule per second (daJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion, where one dekajoule equals ten joules per second.
History/Origin
The dekajoule is a non-SI unit introduced as a multiple of the joule, primarily used in older or specialized contexts. Its usage has declined with the adoption of the SI system, but it remains recognized for certain applications involving large energy quantities.
Current Use
Today, daJ/s is rarely used in scientific contexts, with the watt (W) being the standard SI unit for power. However, it may still appear in legacy systems or specific industrial measurements where larger energy units are convenient.
