What does calorie (th)/second measure?

It measures power as the rate of transferring one thermochemical calorie of energy per second, commonly used in thermal power and calorimetry contexts.

An exawatt (EW) is an SI unit of power equal to 10^18 watts, used for extremely large energy transfer rates like planetary or astrophysical power.

Why are conversions between calorie (th)/second and exawatt so small?

Because calorie (th)/second is a very small power unit compared to the massive scale of an exawatt, resulting in very small conversion values.
