What does calorie (th)/hour/square centimeter measure?

It measures heat flux density as one thermochemical calorie transferred per hour across one square centimeter, indicating the rate of heat flow per unit area.

Why convert to calorie (th)/minute/square centimeter?

Converting to calorie (th)/minute/cm² helps compare heat flux data on shorter time scales, useful in labs and engineering tests requiring minute-based rates.

Are old calorie units identical to modern ones?

Old calorie-based units may differ slightly in definition or calibration, so interpretations of historical data require careful consideration.
