Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to millijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h] to millijoule/second [mJ/s], or Convert millijoule/second to kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
1 kcal/h = 1163 mJ/s. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to millijoule/second, multiply the value by 1163; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mJ/s = 0.000859845227859 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 = 1163 mJ/s
- 1 mJ/s = 0.000859845227859 kcal/h
- 10 kcal/h = 11630 mJ/s
- 100 kcal/h = 116300 mJ/s
How to Convert Kilocalorie (It)/hour to Millijoule/second
1 kcal/h = 1163 mJ/s
Example: convert 15 kcal/h to mJ/s:
15 kcal/h = 15 × 1163 mJ/s = 17445 mJ/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.
Millijoule/second
A millijoule per second (mJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one millijoule of energy transferred or converted every second.
History/Origin
The unit derives from the joule, the SI unit of energy, and the second, the SI unit of time. It has been used in contexts requiring small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering applications, with the millijoule being a submultiple of the joule.
Current Use
Millijoule per second is used to measure small power levels in scientific experiments, electronics, and other fields where precise, small-scale power measurement is necessary, often within the context of energy transfer or consumption rates.
