What does joule per hour [J/h] measure?

Joule per hour (J/h) is a power unit that represents one joule of energy transferred over the span of one hour, quantifying low rates of energy transfer.

Why would I convert joule/hour to calorie (IT)/minute?

This conversion helps translate slow energy transfer rates into more intuitive heat transfer units expressed per minute, making it easier to analyze thermal and calorimetric data.

Is this conversion suitable for high power measurements?

No, it is best suited for relatively low power levels and slow processes. High power or rapid transfers may require different approaches.
