What does calorie (th)/minute measure?

It measures power as the rate of heat transfer equal to one thermochemical calorie delivered per minute.

What is horsepower (boiler) used for?

Horsepower (boiler) rates the thermal power needed to evaporate water in boilers, representing steam generation capacity.

Why might conversion results be very small?

Because calorie (th)/minute measures small-scale power and horsepower (boiler) represents large thermal power, results are often tiny fractions.

Tips & Best Practices

Use this tool to bridge measurements from lab-scale calorimetry to industrial boiler ratings
Remember boiler horsepower is defined under specific water evaporation conditions
Cross-check unit applicability when working in different thermal power contexts
Interpret very small conversion results carefully due to scale differences

Limitations

Calorie (th)/minute measures low-rate heat transfer and may yield tiny fractional horsepower values
Boiler horsepower applies to water evaporation at fixed temperature and may not suit other thermal systems
Direct conversions may require contextual adjustments for accuracy in engineering applications
