What does calorie (th)/minute measure?

It measures power as the rate of heat or energy transfer based on the thermochemical calorie delivered every minute.

What is a hectojoule/second?

A hectojoule per second is a power unit equal to 100 joules transferred per second, equivalent to 100 watts.

Why convert calorie (th)/minute to hJ/s?

Converting to hectojoule/second helps integrate thermal power values into standard SI-based units used in electrical and mechanical power measurements.
