What Is This Tool?

This tool converts values from calorie (IT) per gram, a specific energy unit measuring energy per mass, to gram per thermochemical calorie, which measures mass per unit of thermal energy. It is useful in evaluating fuel efficiency and energy content.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value expressed in calorie (IT) per gram into the input field
  • Select the source unit as calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
  • Choose the target unit as gram/calorie (th) [g/cal (th)]
  • Click the convert button to get the equivalent mass per thermal calorie
  • Review the results and use them for fuel efficiency or energy consumption analysis

Key Features

  • Converts specific energy units between calorie (IT)/gram and gram/calorie (th)
  • Supports energy density and fuel efficiency calculations
  • Browser-based and easy to use
  • Provides clear unit definitions and common use cases
  • Includes example conversions for quick reference

Examples

  • 10 calorie (IT)/gram converts to approximately 9.993312315 gram/calorie (th)
  • 100 calorie (IT)/gram converts to approximately 99.93312315 gram/calorie (th)

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting calorific values of fuels like coal, wood, and diesel in calorimetry
  • Comparing specific energy of fuels for aerospace or portable power applications
  • Performing combustion and engine efficiency calculations based on energy per unit mass
  • Assessing mass efficiency of fuels by grams consumed per thermal energy unit
  • Estimating fuel requirements for propulsion or power plant design
  • Sizing fuel supplies for heating and industrial burners using mass per energy delivered

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always verify you are using consistent calorie definitions for accurate conversion
  • Use this conversion to switch between energy-per-mass and mass-per-energy perspectives
  • Apply this tool when comparing fuel properties or sizing fuel systems
  • Remember the slight difference in calorie definitions may affect precision
  • Use example conversions to validate your input and output values

Limitations

  • Conversion factor slightly differs from 1 due to different calorie definitions
  • Rounding errors might affect calculation precision
  • Assumes consistent usage of International Steam Table and thermochemical calories
  • Does not convert between calories and other energy units such as joules or BTUs

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do calorie (IT)/gram and gram/calorie (th) units have different calorie definitions?
They are based on distinct calorie standards: International Steam Table calorie for calorie (IT) and thermochemical calorie for gram/calorie (th), causing slight differences in energy measurement.

Key Terminology

Calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
A unit of specific energy indicating energy content in International Steam Table calories per gram, used for calorific value and energy density.
Gram/calorie (th) [g/cal (th)]
A unit expressing mass of fuel consumed per thermochemical calorie of energy, serving as a mass-based fuel efficiency measure.
International Steam Table calorie (cal (IT))
A calorie standard approximately equal to 4.1868 joules, used in specific energy calculations.
Thermochemical calorie (cal_th)
A calorie definition equal to 4.184 joules, applied in mass per energy measurements.
