What does one Btu (IT)/minute represent?

It represents the rate of heat transfer of one international British thermal unit per minute, quantifying thermal power in engineering and HVAC contexts.

When should I use kilocalorie (IT)/minute units?

Use kilocalorie (IT)/minute to express energy transfer rates in nutritional, physiological, or small-scale heating and cooling applications.

Is kilocalorie (IT)/minute commonly used in industrial power measurements?

No, it is less common in large-scale industrial settings compared to watts or Btu (IT)/minute and is better suited for specific contexts like physiology or appliance manufacturing.
