Convert Joule per kilogram degree Celsius (J/(kg·°C)) to Thermochemical calorie per gram per degree Celsius (cal(th)/(g·°C)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
cal(th)/(g·°C) = J/(kg·°C) × 0.0002390057361
About Joule per kilogram degree Celsius
The joule per kilogram degree Celsius (J/(kg·°C)) equals exactly 1 J/(kg·K) since temperature intervals 1 °C = 1 K. Widely used in building physics, HVAC, and thermodynamics textbooks where Celsius is the standard temperature scale. Material property tables in ISO and EN standards frequently list specific heat in J/(kg·°C). 1 J/(kg·°C) = 1 J/(kg·K).
About Thermochemical calorie per gram per degree Celsius
The thermochemical calorie per gram per degree Celsius (cal(th)/(g·°C)) equals exactly 4184 J/(kg·K) (1 cal(th) = 4.184 J). The CGS unit of specific heat dominant in older US chemistry and biochemistry. Liquid water has a specific heat of almost exactly 1 cal(th)/(g·°C). Slightly smaller than the IT counterpart. 1 cal(th)/(g·°C) = 4184 J/(kg·K) = 1 kcal(th)/(kg·°C).
