Convert watt to calorie (IT)/hour
Please provide values below to convert watt [W] to calorie (IT)/hour [cal/h], or Convert calorie (IT)/hour to watt.
1 W = 0.859845227859 cal/h. To convert watt to calorie (IT)/hour, multiply the value by 0.859845227859; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal/h = 1.163 W). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 W = 0.859845227859 cal/h
- 1 cal/h = 1.163 W
- 10 W = 8.59845227859 cal/h
- 100 W = 85.9845227859 cal/h
How to Convert Watt to Calorie (It)/hour
1 W = 0.859845227858985 cal/h

Watt
The watt (W) is the SI unit of power, defined as one joule per second, representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion.
History/Origin
The watt was named after James Watt, the Scottish engineer and inventor, in 1889. It was adopted as the SI unit of power to standardize measurements in science and engineering.
Current Use
The watt is widely used today to quantify power in electrical devices, engines, and energy consumption, serving as a fundamental unit in physics, engineering, and everyday applications.
Calorie (It)/hour
Calorie per hour (cal/h) is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or consumed over time.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and thermodynamics to quantify energy. The cal/h unit emerged in contexts where energy transfer rates were expressed in calories per hour, particularly in heating and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Cal/h is used in specific scientific and engineering applications, such as measuring heat transfer rates, metabolic rates, and in some thermal engineering contexts, although it is less common than SI units like watts.
