What is calorie (th)/minute used for?

It is a power unit measuring thermal energy transfer per minute, commonly employed in laboratory calorimetry, metabolic rate studies, and food heating tests.

Where is picojoule/second commonly applied?

Picojoule/second quantifies extremely small power levels in microelectronics, photonics, and low-energy digital circuits.

Why is there such a large conversion factor between these units?

Because calorie (th)/minute measures moderate energy rates, while picojoule/second deals with power at the nanoscale, resulting in a difference of many orders of magnitude.
