What Is This Tool?

This unit converter transforms energy values measured in calorie (th)/gram, which are thermochemical calories per gram, into calorie (IT)/gram, which are International Steam Table calories per gram. It is designed for consistent and standard-compliant energy reporting in fuel and material energy content analysis.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the energy value in calorie (th)/gram you want to convert
  • Select the source unit as calorie (th)/gram
  • Choose the target unit as calorie (IT)/gram
  • Click convert to get the corresponding calorie (IT)/gram value
  • Use the results for fuel analysis or energy content reporting

Key Features

  • Converts specific energy values from calorie (th)/gram to calorie (IT)/gram
  • Supports lab and fuel industry energy content comparisons
  • Facilitates alignment with International Steam Table calorie standards
  • Browser-based and easy to use
  • Provides clear example conversions

Examples

  • 5 cal (th)/g converts to approximately 4.9967 cal (IT)/g using the conversion rate
  • 10 cal (th)/g converts to approximately 9.9933 cal (IT)/g using the conversion factor

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting calorific values of fuels like coal, wood, and diesel in lab analyses
  • Comparing energy densities of fuels for aerospace and portable power selection
  • Performing combustion and engine efficiency calculations involving energy per mass
  • Standardizing calorific values to international energy units for consistent documentation

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always verify the calorie standard used in your data source before converting
  • Use the conversion for aligning values to the International Steam Table calorie when comparing fuels
  • Consider material homogeneity and testing conditions as they affect calorific values
  • Account for potential minor discrepancies due to the close but not exact conversion factor

Limitations

  • The conversion factor is close but not exact, potentially causing small errors in precise energy calculations
  • Accuracy depends on consistent calorie definitions relevant to measuring standards
  • Variations in material composition and test conditions may affect reported calorific values
