What does calorie (th)/minute measure?

It measures power as the rate of heat or energy transfer, defined by the thermochemical calorie delivered per minute.

Why convert calorie (th)/minute to joule/minute?

Converting enables compatibility with SI units, making it easier to analyze and integrate data across scientific and engineering applications.

Is joule/minute a common power unit?

Joule/minute is less common than watts but useful when expressing power averaged over a minute rather than seconds.
