Convert watt to kilocalorie (IT)/minute
Please provide values below to convert watt [W] to kilocalorie (IT)/minute [kcal/min], or Convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute to watt.
1 W = 0.0143307537976 kcal/min. To convert watt to kilocalorie (IT)/minute, multiply the value by 0.0143307537976; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kcal/min = 69.78 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 = 0.0143307537976 kcal/min
- 1 kcal/min = 69.78 W
- 10 W = 0.143307537976 kcal/min

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.
Kilocalorie (It)/minute
A unit of power representing the energy expended or transferred at a rate of one kilocalorie per minute.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie (kcal) has historically been used to measure energy in food and nutrition, while the minute as a time unit has been standard in timekeeping. Combining these, kcal/min was used to quantify power, especially in contexts like metabolic rates and energy expenditure, before the widespread adoption of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
The kcal/min is primarily used in fields such as physiology and sports science to express rates of energy expenditure, though it is less common today with the adoption of the watt (W) as the standard SI unit of power.
