What does 1 kilocalorie (IT)/minute represent in power terms?

It represents the rate of energy transfer where one kilocalorie (International Table) is delivered or used each minute, quantifying energy per time.

Why convert kilocalorie (IT)/minute to hectowatt?

To translate energy rates from nutritional or thermal units into the standardized SI power unit suitable for electrical and mechanical applications.

Is the conversion exact for all applications?

No, it may not reflect inefficiencies or thermodynamic losses and is most accurate when energy transfer methods are properly calibrated to SI standards.
