What does one terajoule per second represent?

One terajoule per second is a very large power unit equal to one trillion joules transferred every second, equivalent to one terawatt.

Why convert TJ/s to kilocalorie (th)/minute?

This conversion helps relate extremely large power outputs to thermal energy rates used in physiology, calorimetry, and small-scale thermal processes.

Are kilocalorie (th) units the same as nutritional kilocalories?

No, the thermochemical kilocalorie basis differs slightly from nutritional or international definitions, which may affect some conversions.
