Convert kilojoule/hour to calorie (IT)/second
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule/hour [kJ/h] to calorie (IT)/second [cal/s], or Convert calorie (IT)/second to kilojoule/hour.
1 kJ/h = 6.63460824496e-05 cal/s. To convert kilojoule/hour to calorie (IT)/second, multiply the value by 6.63460824496e-05; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal/s = 15072.4799879 kJ/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Kilojoule/hour
A kilojoule per hour (kJ/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in kilojoules transferred or converted per hour.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per hour has been used as a measure of power in contexts where energy transfer rates are expressed over time, particularly in engineering and scientific applications, though it is less common than standard SI units like watts.
Current Use
kJ/h is used in specific fields such as thermodynamics and energy management to quantify energy transfer rates, especially in systems where energy is measured in kilojoules and the rate is expressed per hour, though it is often converted to watts for standardization.
Calorie (It)/second
Calorie per second (cal/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The calorie, originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius, has been used in various contexts including nutrition and thermodynamics. The use of calories per second as a power unit became common in scientific and engineering fields to quantify energy transfer rates before the adoption of the SI unit watt.
Current Use
Calorie per second is primarily used in scientific research, thermodynamics, and certain engineering applications to measure power, especially in contexts where energy transfer in calories is relevant. It is less common in everyday use, having been largely replaced by the watt (W) in SI units.
Frequently Asked Questions
