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 (watt (W)) 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)
Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)
1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 daW = 10 watt (W)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 cal/h = 0.001163 watt (W)
Step-by-step substitution for Dekawatt → Calorie (IT)/hour:V(cal/h) = V(daW) × ( 10 / 0.001163 ) = V(daW) × 8598.452279
Mathematical FormulaValue in Calorie (IT)/hour = Value in Dekawatt × 8598.45227859Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
Worked Example

Evaluating an input of 24 Dekawatt (daW) produces 206362.854686 Calorie (IT)/hour (cal/h). In heavy-duty utility and industrial workloads, 2500 daW equals 2.149613 × 10⁷ cal/h.

Inverse check: 1 cal/h = 0.0001163 daW.
