What does millijoule per second measure?

It measures power at a low scale, equal to 0.001 joules per second or 1 milliwatt, commonly used for low-power electronics and optical devices.

When should I use kilocalorie (th) per second?

This unit is used when measuring thermal power or heat flow rates, especially in heat transfer, calorimetry, and HVAC design applications.

Why are converted values so small?

Because millijoule per second indicates very low power, converting it to kilocalorie (th)/second produces very small numbers requiring precise interpretation.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value you want to convert in millijoule per second.
Select millijoule/second as the input unit and kilocalorie (th)/second as the target unit.
Click the convert button to obtain the equivalent power in kilocalorie (th)/second.
Review the conversion output for use in thermal power or heat transfer analyses.

Key Features

Converts low-power units (mJ/s) to thermal power units (kcal(th)/s).
Browser-based and easy to use with straightforward input and output fields.
Suitable for electronics, thermal testing, and HVAC design contexts.
Supports conversion using precise conversion rates as defined.
Displays results useful for interpreting heat transfer and calorimetry data.

Examples

10 mJ/s converts to approximately 2.3900573613767e-6 kcal(th)/s.
1000 mJ/s converts to approximately 2.3900573613767e-4 kcal(th)/s.

Common Use Cases

Converting power consumption data from sensors, microcontrollers, and wearables into thermal units.
Measuring heat output rates for laboratory lasers and low-power LED devices.
Evaluating thermal power for heating elements, boilers, or burners using calorie-based metrics.
Conducting calorimetry and thermal testing studies in research laboratories.
Designing HVAC components and heat exchangers based on thermochemical calorie data.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure input values represent low-power range for accurate conversion relevance.
Use the conversion results for thermal engineering or calorimetry where kilocalorie (th)/second units are standard.
Account for the very small output values in kcal(th)/s when interpreting results.
Double-check units to confirm the thermochemical calorie context applies to your project.
Utilize this tool to bridge electronic power readings with thermal power requirements.

Limitations

Millijoule/second as a unit reflects very low power, resulting in extremely small kilocalorie (th)/second values.
The thermochemical kilocalorie unit is specific to heat transfer and may not suit contexts outside of thermal engineering or calorimetry.
