What does joule/second/square meter measure?

It measures heat flow rate per unit area, equivalent to watts per square meter, indicating thermal power crossing a surface.

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

This unit is often preferred in thermal testing, biomedical applications, and solar experiments where calorie-based units are standard.

Are there any limitations when using this conversion?

Yes, the conversion assumes steady-state conditions and consistent area measurements, with differences in time and area units requiring attention.
