What does calorie (th)/second represent?

Calorie (thermochemical) per second is a power unit representing the transfer of one thermochemical calorie of energy each second, equal to 4.184 watts.

Why convert to kilocalorie (IT)/minute?

Kilocalorie (International Table) per minute is commonly used in physiological and nutritional energy measurements, making it useful for fitness and metabolism studies.

Can this tool convert transient power values accurately?

No, this conversion assumes steady and continuous energy transfer and does not cover transient or fluctuating power conditions.
