Ideal for calorimetry, metabolic studies, and thermal system design.
Browser-based and easy to use without software installation.

Examples

Convert 10 calorie (th)/minute: 10 × 0.0000166667 = 0.000166667 kilocalorie (th)/second.
Convert 60 calorie (th)/minute: 60 × 0.0000166667 = 0.001 kilocalorie (th)/second.

Common Use Cases

Reporting heat-release rates in laboratory calorimetry experiments.
Expressing metabolic rates in physiological studies.
Specifying heat output for heating elements, boilers, or burners.
Sizing heat exchangers and HVAC components using calorie-based data.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure the thermochemical calorie basis is consistent across measurements.
Use the tool for translating low-rate experimental data to engineering-level units.
Review results carefully when converting extremely small or large values to prevent precision issues.

Limitations

Calorie (th)/minute is less practical for high-power uses due to its small scale.
Conversions may suffer precision loss with very large or very small input values.
Measurements must use the thermochemical calorie basis to maintain accuracy.
