Unit Description

Calorie per Second (cal/s)

Definition

Calorie per second (cal/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one calorie per second. It's used in thermodynamic applications and provides a direct relationship between thermal energy and power.

History

Calorie per second developed with early thermodynamic studies and calorimetry. It provided a way to express power in terms of thermal energy units, particularly useful in heat transfer calculations and thermal system analysis.

Current Use

Calorie per second is used in thermodynamics, heat transfer calculations, and thermal system design. It's found in calorimetry, thermal analysis, and applications where thermal energy rates are more intuitive than electrical power units.

Kilovolt-Ampere (kVA)

Definition

Kilovolt-ampere (kVA) is a unit of apparent power equal to one thousand volt-amperes. It's widely used for rating large AC electrical equipment, transformers, and electrical systems where apparent power is the primary concern.

History

Kilovolt-ampere became standard with the growth of large AC electrical systems and power distribution. It provided an appropriate scale for rating transformers, generators, and large electrical equipment where apparent power capacity was the critical specification.

Current Use

Kilovolt-amperes are extensively used for transformer ratings, generator specifications, large UPS systems, and electrical distribution equipment. They're standard for power system design, electrical equipment ratings, and AC power capacity specifications.
