Convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute to kilocalorie (th)/hour
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute [kcal/min] to kilocalorie (th)/hour [kcal(th)/h], or Convert kilocalorie (th)/hour to kilocalorie (IT)/minute.
1 kcal/min = 60.0401530785 kcal(th)/h. To convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute to kilocalorie (th)/hour, multiply the value by 60.0401530785; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal(th)/h = 0.016655520493 kcal/min). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Kilocalorie (It)/minute
A unit of power representing the energy expended or transferred at a rate of one kilocalorie per minute.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie (kcal) has historically been used to measure energy in food and nutrition, while the minute as a time unit has been standard in timekeeping. Combining these, kcal/min was used to quantify power, especially in contexts like metabolic rates and energy expenditure, before the widespread adoption of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
The kcal/min is primarily used in fields such as physiology and sports science to express rates of energy expenditure, though it is less common today with the adoption of the watt (W) as the standard SI unit of power.
Kilocalorie (Th)/hour
A kilocalorie (th)/hour (kcal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per hour is transferred or converted.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adapted into various units including the thermochemical kilocalorie (kcal(th)). Its use in power measurement, such as kcal(th)/h, is primarily for specialized scientific and engineering applications, integrating energy units with time to express power.
Current Use
The kcal(th)/h unit is used in contexts requiring the measurement of energy transfer rates in thermochemical terms, such as in thermal engineering, calorimetry, and energy efficiency assessments where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
