What does Btu (th)/minute measure?

It measures the rate of thermal energy transfer using the thermochemical British thermal unit per minute, commonly used to express heating capacity.

Where is kilocalorie (IT)/hour commonly used?

It is used to specify heating or cooling output of small heaters, boilers, radiators, cooking appliances, and to express human metabolic heat rates.

How do I convert from Btu (th)/minute to kcal/h?

Multiply the Btu (th)/minute value by the conversion factor 15.1096302662 to obtain the equivalent kilocalorie (IT)/hour.
