Joule/hour

A joule per hour (J/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy (in joules) transferred or converted per hour.

History/Origin

The joule per hour has been used as a measure of power in various scientific and engineering contexts, especially where energy transfer rates are expressed over longer periods. It is derived from the SI unit of energy, the joule, divided by time in hours.

Current Use

Joule per hour is occasionally used in fields like heating, energy consumption, and industrial processes to quantify power over extended durations, though it is less common than watts for standard power measurements.


Calorie (It)/hour

Calorie per hour (cal/h) is a unit of power that measures the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or consumed over time.

History/Origin

The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and thermodynamics to quantify energy. The cal/h unit emerged in contexts where energy transfer rates were expressed in calories per hour, particularly in heating and metabolic studies.

Current Use

Cal/h is used in specific scientific and engineering applications, such as measuring heat transfer rates, metabolic rates, and in some thermal engineering contexts, although it is less common than SI units like watts.
