What is a millijoule per second (mJ/s)?

A millijoule per second is a unit of power equal to 0.001 joules per second, often used to specify power in low-power electronic devices and microscale experiments.

Why convert millijoule/second to calorie (IT)/minute?

Converting allows expressing low power or heat rates in units applicable to laboratory calorimetry, thermal engineering, and physiological metabolic rate studies.

Can I use this conversion for high-power systems?

This conversion is primarily intended for low power or heat rate measurements, as these units represent relatively small quantities.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the value in millijoule per second (mJ/s) into the input field.
Select the target unit, calorie (IT) per minute (cal/min), if not already selected.
Click the convert button to see the equivalent power expressed in cal/min.

Key Features

Supports conversion of millijoule/second to calorie (IT)/minute power units.
Provides a straightforward, browser-based interface for easy usage.
Ideal for users working with low-power electronics, optical devices, and thermal experiments.

Examples

Convert 5 mJ/s to cal/min: 5 mJ/s × 0.0143307538 = 0.071653769 cal/min
Convert 10 mJ/s to cal/min: 10 mJ/s × 0.0143307538 = 0.143307538 cal/min

Common Use Cases

Describing power consumption in low-power electronics such as sensors and wearables.
Measuring optical power output of low-power LEDs or laboratory lasers.
Reporting heat release or absorption rates in laboratory calorimetry.
Expressing metabolic rates in physiology and exercise science on a small time scale.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure accurate input measurements at the microscale for reliable conversions.
Use this tool for small power or heat rate values to stay within the intended unit scope.
Combine converted data with relevant scientific or engineering context for better analysis.

Limitations

Units differ in their base definitions for time and energy, so conversions assume ideal conditions.
Conversion accuracy depends on precise energy transfer measurements at microscale levels.
Generally suited only for low power or heat rate scenarios due to small quantity representations.
