Convert kilojoule/second to calorie (th)/hour
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule/second [kJ/s] to calorie (th)/hour [cal(th)/h], or Convert calorie (th)/hour to kilojoule/second.
1 kJ/s = 860.420651741 cal(th)/h. To convert kilojoule/second to calorie (th)/hour, multiply the value by 860.420651741; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal(th)/h = 0.00116222222 kJ/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Kilojoule/second
A kilojoule per second (kJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one kilojoule of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), and has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure power, especially in fields like physics and energy studies.
Current Use
It is used to quantify power in various applications, including electrical power, mechanical power, and energy transfer rates, particularly where kilojoules and seconds are the relevant units.
Calorie (Th)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of heat energy in calories transferred or used per hour.
History/Origin
The calorie, originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C, has been used in various contexts including nutrition and physics. The 'th' denotes the thermochemical calorie, an older standard. The unit cal(th)/h has been used historically in thermodynamics and heat transfer measurements.
Current Use
Today, cal(th)/h is rarely used in modern scientific contexts, having been largely replaced by SI units like watts. However, it may still appear in legacy systems or specialized fields involving heat transfer calculations.
