Convert calorie (th) per second to watts
Calorie (th) per Second
The thermochemical calorie per second is a unit of power equal to one thermochemical calorie (4.184 joules) transferred per second. It is the base-rate thermochemical calorie power unit, used in calorimetry and chemical thermodynamics. One thermochemical calorie per second equals exactly 4.184 watts.
Watt
The watt (symbol: W ) is a unit of power. In the International System of Units (SI) it is defined as a derived unit of 1 joule per second, and is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer. In SI base units, the watt is described as kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −3 , which can be demonstrated to be coherent by dimensional analysis. The watt is named after James Watt, an 18th-century Scottish inventor.
