What does a kilocalorie (IT)/minute measure?

It measures the rate of energy transfer as one kilocalorie (International Table) delivered or used each minute, commonly for nutrition or small heating applications.

What is MBH used for?

MBH measures power as 1,000 BTUs per hour, and it is widely used for rating the capacity of heating devices in HVAC systems.

Why convert from kilocalorie (IT)/minute to MBH?

Converting allows expressing energy transfer rates from nutritional or physiological units into heating industry standards for equipment specification and evaluation.
