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.
Kilojoule/second
A kilojoule per second (kJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one kilojoule of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), and has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure power, especially in fields like physics and energy studies.
Current Use
It is used to quantify power in various applications, including electrical power, mechanical power, and energy transfer rates, particularly where kilojoules and seconds are the relevant units.
