Convert calorie (th)/second to hectojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert calorie (th)/second [cal(th)/s] to hectojoule/second [hJ/s], or Convert hectojoule/second to calorie (th)/second.
1 cal(th)/s = 41.84 hJ/s. To convert calorie (th)/second to hectojoule/second, multiply the value by 41.84; to go the other way, divide by it (1 hJ/s = 0.0239005736138 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 = 41.84 hJ/s
- 1 hJ/s = 0.0239005736138 cal(th)/s
- 10 cal(th)/s = 418.4 hJ/s
- 100 cal(th)/s = 4184 hJ/s
How to Convert Calorie (Th)/second to Hectojoule/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 It may still appear in specialized fields or historical references related to thermal energy transfer rates.
Hectojoule/second
Hectojoule per second (hJ/s) is a unit of power representing one hundred joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The unit hJ/s is derived from the SI unit joule (J) and the metric prefix hecto- (h), used to express larger quantities of energy transfer rate, particularly in scientific and engineering contexts. It has been used as an alternative to watts in certain fields, though watts are more standard.
Current Use
Hectojoule per second is occasionally used in scientific and engineering applications to quantify power, especially in contexts where larger energy transfer rates are involved. However, the watt (W) remains the standard SI unit for power, and hJ/s is less common in everyday use.
