Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to kilojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h] to kilojoule/second [kJ/s], or Convert kilojoule/second to kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
1 kcal/h = 0.001163 kJ/s. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to kilojoule/second, multiply the value by 0.001163; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kJ/s = 859.845227859 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 = 0.001163 kJ/s
- 1 kJ/s = 859.845227859 kcal/h
- 10 kcal/h = 0.01163 kJ/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.
Kilojoule/second
A kilojoule per second (kJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one kilojoule of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), and has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure power, especially in fields like physics and energy studies.
Current Use
It is used to quantify power in various applications, including electrical power, mechanical power, and energy transfer rates, particularly where kilojoules and seconds are the relevant units.
