Convert kilocalorie (th)/hour to megajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilocalorie (th)/hour [kcal(th)/h] to megajoule/second [MJ/s], or Convert megajoule/second to kilocalorie (th)/hour.
1 kcal(th)/h = 1.16222222e-06 MJ/s. To convert kilocalorie (th)/hour to megajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.16222222e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 MJ/s = 860420.651741 kcal(th)/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

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.
Megajoule/second
A megajoule per second (MJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one megajoule of energy transferred or converted per second, where 1 megajoule equals 1,000,000 joules.
History/Origin
The megajoule per second has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify large-scale power, especially in fields like physics and energy systems, as a convenient unit for expressing high power levels. It is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second).
Current Use
Today, MJ/s is primarily used in scientific research, energy production, and engineering to describe high power outputs, such as in power plants, large-scale energy systems, and theoretical calculations involving energy transfer rates.
