What exactly is an inch-ounce (in*ozf)?

It is a unit of energy or torque from one ounce-force applied through one inch of displacement, used mainly for small-scale mechanical work.

Why convert from inch-ounce to kilocalorie (th)?

This conversion helps express small mechanical torque values in terms of heat energy, aiding analyses that link mechanical and thermal energy.

Where is kilocalorie (th) commonly used?

Kilocalorie (thermochemical) is often used in nutrition for food energy content and in thermal engineering for heat quantity analysis.
