What does kilocalorie (th)/second measure?

It measures the rate of heat transfer equal to one thermochemical kilocalorie per second and is commonly used to quantify thermal power or heat flow.

Why is attojoule/second used for power measurement?

Attojoule per second quantifies extremely small energy transfer rates, useful for low-power and nanoscale scientific applications.

Can I use this conversion for everyday engineering?

Due to the large magnitude difference, this conversion is mostly suited for advanced scientific and research contexts rather than typical engineering.
