Convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to terajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour [kcal/h] to terajoule/second [TJ/s], or Convert terajoule/second to kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
1 kcal/h = 1.1630e-12 TJ/s. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to terajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.1630e-12; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TJ/s = 859845227859 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 = 1.1630e-12 TJ/s
- 1 TJ/s = 859845227859 kcal/h
- 10 kcal/h = 1.1630e-11 TJ/s
- 100 kcal/h = 1.1630e-10 TJ/s
How to Convert Kilocalorie (It)/hour to Terajoule/second
1 kcal/h = 1.163e-12 TJ/s
Example: convert 15 kcal/h to TJ/s:
15 kcal/h = 15 × 1.163e-12 TJ/s = 1.7445e-11 TJ/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.
Terajoule/second
A terajoule per second (TJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillion joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The terajoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'tera' indicating a factor of 10^12. It is used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very high power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production.
Current Use
TJ/s is used to quantify extremely high power outputs, such as in large-scale energy systems, astrophysical phenomena, and nuclear reactions, where conventional units like watts are insufficient to express the magnitude.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 kilocalorie (IT)/hour in terajoule/second?
1 kilocalorie (IT)/hour (kcal/h) = 1.1630e-12 terajoule/second (TJ/s).
How do you convert kilocalorie (IT)/hour to terajoule/second?
Multiply the kilocalorie (IT)/hour value by 1.1630e-12. For example, 25 kcal/h × 1.1630e-12 = 2.9075e-11 TJ/s.
What is 10 kilocalorie (IT)/hour in terajoule/second?
10 kcal/h = 1.1630e-11 TJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the kilocalorie (IT)/hour or the terajoule/second?
The terajoule/second is the larger unit: 1 kcal/h equals only 1.1630e-12 TJ/s.
