Kilocalorie (Th)/hour
A kilocalorie (th)/hour (kcal(th)/h) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in kilocalories per hour is transferred or converted.
History/Origin
The kilocalorie, often used in nutrition and energy measurement, has been adapted into various units including the thermochemical kilocalorie (kcal(th)). Its use in power measurement, such as kcal(th)/h, is primarily for specialized scientific and engineering applications, integrating energy units with time to express power.
Current Use
The kcal(th)/h unit is used in contexts requiring the measurement of energy transfer rates in thermochemical terms, such as in thermal engineering, calorimetry, and energy efficiency assessments where energy flow is expressed in kilocalories per hour.
Calorie (Th)/minute
A calorie (th)/minute is a unit of power representing the amount of heat energy in calories (thermochemical) transferred or used per minute.
History/Origin
The calorie (th)/minute has been used historically in thermodynamics and nutrition to quantify heat transfer rates, especially before the adoption of the watt as the standard SI unit of power.
Current Use
Today, the calorie (th)/minute is rarely used in scientific contexts, having been largely replaced by the watt; however, it may still appear in specialized fields or legacy data related to heat transfer and energy consumption.
