Convert joule/second to calorie (th)/hour
Please provide values below to convert joule/second [J/s] to calorie (th)/hour [cal(th)/h], or Convert calorie (th)/hour to joule/second.
1 J/s = 0.860420651741 cal(th)/h. To convert joule/second to calorie (th)/hour, multiply the value by 0.860420651741; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal(th)/h = 1.16222222 J/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Joule/second
The joule per second (J/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to one watt.
History/Origin
The joule per second has been used as a measure of power since the adoption of the SI system, where the watt (W) became the standard unit of power, with 1 J/s = 1 W.
Current Use
J/s is primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify power, especially in physics and electrical engineering, often interchangeably with watts.
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.
