What does calorie (th)/minute measure?

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

Why convert calorie (th)/minute to kilojoule/second?

Converting helps translate low-rate thermal power readings into standard units used for industrial and engineering applications.

Can this conversion be used for fluctuating power rates?

No, this conversion assumes steady-state energy transfer and may not apply accurately to variable or transient power rates.
