Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to centijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h] to centijoule/second [cJ/s], or Convert centijoule/second to kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
1 kcal/h = 116.3 cJ/s. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to centijoule/second, multiply the value by 116.3; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cJ/s = 0.00859845227859 kcal/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 kcal/h = 116.3 cJ/s
- 1 cJ/s = 0.00859845227859 kcal/h
- 10 kcal/h = 1163 cJ/s
- 100 kcal/h = 11630 cJ/s
How to Convert Kilocalorie (It)/hour to Centijoule/second
1 kcal/h = 116.3 cJ/s
Example: convert 15 kcal/h to cJ/s:
15 kcal/h = 15 × 116.3 cJ/s = 1744.5 cJ/s

Kilocalorie (It)/hour
Kilocalorie per hour (kcal/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories is transferred or converted per hour.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adopted as a unit of energy. Its use in power measurement, such as kcal/h, emerged in contexts like thermal and caloric power calculations, especially in fields related to heating and energy transfer.
Current Use
kcal/h is used in applications involving thermal power, such as heating systems, calorimetry, and energy transfer calculations where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
Centijoule/second
A centijoule per second (cJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to 0.01 joules per second.
History/Origin
The centijoule per second is derived from the SI unit joule, with the prefix centi indicating a hundredth, and is used in contexts requiring smaller power measurements. It has been in use as a supplementary unit in scientific and engineering fields where precise, small-scale power measurements are needed.
Current Use
The cJ/s is used in scientific research, engineering, and technical applications involving small power quantities, such as in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), low-power electronics, and detailed energy transfer analyses within the 'Power' converter category.
