What does one petajoule per second represent?

One petajoule per second is a unit of power equal to 10^15 joules per second, representing very large-scale energy flow rates.

In what scenarios is converting PJ/s to kilocalorie (IT)/minute useful?

It is helpful when interpreting massive power flows in terms relevant to metabolism, physiology, or small-scale thermal energy applications.

Why might the conversion result in very large numbers?

Because a petajoule per second is an extremely large unit compared to a kilocalorie per minute, the conversion produces very large values that reflect the scale difference.
