Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (joule (J)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 Cal = 4183.995381 joule (J)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 keV = 1.602177 × 10⁻¹⁶ joule (J)
Step-by-step substitution for Calorie (nutritional) → Kiloelectron-volt:V(keV) = V(Cal) × ( 4183.995381 / 1.602177 × 10⁻¹⁶ ) = V(Cal) × 2.611444 × 10¹⁹
Mathematical FormulaValue in Kiloelectron-volt = Value in Calorie (nutritional) × 2.61144448 × 10¹⁹Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
Worked Example

For an engineering input of 8 Cal, applying the conversion factor yields exactly 2.089156 × 10²⁰ keV. At larger operational scale, 2500 Calorie (nutritional) corresponds to 6.528611 × 10²² keV.

Inverse check: 1 keV = 3.829298 × 10⁻²⁰ Cal.
