What is a nanojoule per second (nJ/s)?

It is a unit of power equal to 10⁻⁹ joules per second, representing very small continuous power levels such as those found in microelectronics or photonics.

What does kilocalorie (IT)/second measure?

Kilocalorie (IT)/second is a power unit representing the transfer of one International Table kilocalorie of energy per second, commonly used in heat transfer and metabolic energy analysis.

Why convert nanojoule/second to kilocalorie (IT)/second?

Converting allows translation of tiny electrical or optical power values into thermal power units used in calorimetry and biomedical energy studies, facilitating comparison across measurement methods.
