What does kilocalorie (th)/minute measure?

It measures the rate of thermal energy transfer based on thermochemical kilocalories delivered per minute.

When should I use centijoule/second units?

Centijoule/second is ideal for expressing very small steady power levels, such as for sensors or micro-energy harvesting devices.

Is this conversion suitable for large-scale thermal systems?

No, centijoule/second is typically for low-power contexts; larger systems are better measured in watts or other larger units.
