What does millijoule per second measure?

Millijoule per second is a unit of power indicating the rate of energy transfer, equal to one-thousandth of a joule per second, commonly used for low-power devices.

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

This conversion is useful to express very low power energy transfer rates in terms of heat energy over time, often for calorimetry and metabolic rate studies.

Are there any limitations to this conversion?

Yes, it assumes the use of the thermochemical calorie definition and involves units that are niche, so accuracy and contextual interpretation are important considerations.

Enter the power value in millijoule/second you wish to convert.
Select millijoule/second [mJ/s] as the input unit and calorie (th)/minute as the output unit.
Click the convert button to obtain the equivalent power value in calorie (th)/minute.

Key Features

Converts power from millijoule/second (mJ/s) to calorie (th)/minute accurately using established conversion rates.
Supports applications in low-power electronic systems, small-scale calorimetry, metabolic rate analysis, and food science energy transfer.
User-friendly interface enabling quick entry and conversion of values without requiring detailed technical knowledge.

Examples

10 Millijoule/second converts to 0.143403442 Calorie (th)/minute.
50 Millijoule/second converts to 0.71701721 Calorie (th)/minute.

Common Use Cases

Measuring power consumption in low-power electronics such as sensors and wearables.
Reporting heat-release rates in laboratory calorimetry experiments.
Expressing metabolic energy expenditure in biological or medical contexts.
Characterizing low-rate heating or energy transfer in food science and product testing.

Tips & Best Practices

Verify the calorie variant used corresponds to the thermochemical calorie to ensure conversion accuracy.
Use the converter primarily for low power levels since millijoule/second pertains to very small energy rates.
Interpret results carefully when working outside of scientific or physiological contexts due to unit specificity.

Limitations

Conversion relies on the thermochemical calorie definition (4.184 joules), which may differ from other calorie types.
Measurement errors in very low power devices can affect reliability of the converted values.
Calorie (th)/minute is a less common unit internationally compared to watts and requires contextual understanding.
