Kilocalorie (Th)/second

A kilocalorie (th)/second (kcal(th)/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per second is transferred or converted.

History/Origin

The kilocalorie (th) is a traditional unit of energy used primarily in nutrition and thermodynamics, with 'th' indicating the thermochemical definition. Its use in power measurements, such as kcal(th)/s, is less common and primarily for specialized scientific contexts.

Current Use

The unit kcal(th)/s is rarely used in modern practice; power is more commonly expressed in watts. When used, it typically appears in scientific research involving energy transfer rates in thermochemical processes or specialized engineering applications.


Pferdestarke

The pferdestarke (ps) is a unit of power used primarily in Germany, equivalent to 735.5 watts.

History/Origin

The pferdestarke was introduced in the late 19th century as a metric unit of horsepower, named after the German word for 'horsepower'. It was used to measure engine power, especially in automotive and engineering contexts.

Current Use

Today, the pferdestarke is largely obsolete and replaced by the SI unit watt, but it is still occasionally used in historical references and in certain European countries for measuring engine power.
