Convert calorie (th)/second to foot pound-force/hour
Please provide values below to convert calorie (th)/second [cal(th)/s] to foot pound-force/hour [ft*lbf/h], or Convert foot pound-force/hour to calorie (th)/second.
1 cal(th)/s = 11109458.9715 ft*lbf/h. To convert calorie (th)/second to foot pound-force/hour, multiply the value by 11109458.9715; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ft*lbf/h = 9.00133843212e-08 cal(th)/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

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 It may still appear in specialized fields or historical references related to thermal energy transfer rates.
Foot Pound-Force/hour
Foot pound-force per hour (ft*lbf/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of work done in foot-pounds over the period of one hour.
History/Origin
The foot pound-force is an imperial unit of work or energy, and its use in power measurements like ft*lbf/h has been common in engineering fields in the United States. It has been used historically in mechanical and thermodynamic contexts before the adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Today, ft*lbf/h is primarily used in specific engineering applications, such as in the measurement of small power outputs in mechanical systems, though it is largely replaced by SI units like watts in most scientific and international contexts.
