What does Btu (th)/minute measure?

It measures the rate of thermal energy transfer as one thermochemical British thermal unit of heat per minute.

Why convert to kilocalorie (th)/hour?

Because kilocalorie (th)/hour is another common unit for heat flow, useful in HVAC and appliance specifications, especially where different unit systems are used.

Can this conversion be used for non-thermal power?

No, this conversion is strictly for thermal power and should not be used for other power types.
