What is a calorie (IT)/hour used for?

It is used to measure very small heat transfer rates, commonly in thermal and calorimetric laboratory work.

When would I need to convert calorie (IT)/hour to exawatt?

Conversions are useful for relating tiny heat flows to massive planetary or astrophysical power scales, often for comparison or modeling.

Why is the exawatt unit so large compared to calorie (IT)/hour?

An exawatt equals 10^18 watts and represents extremely large power levels like those found in planetary or astrophysical contexts, while calorie (IT)/hour measures very small energy transfers.
