What does one kilocalorie (th)/minute represent?

It denotes the rate of thermal energy transfer equivalent to one thermochemical kilocalorie delivered every minute.

How is a hectojoule per second related to watts?

Since one joule per second equals one watt, one hectojoule per second equals 100 watts.

Why would I convert kilocalorie (th)/minute to hectojoule/second?

Converting allows thermal energy rates used in physiology or calorimetry to be expressed in a power unit compatible with electrical and mechanical systems.
