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:

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 (k_source):1 daW = 10 watt (W)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 kcal (th)/h = 1.162222 watt (W)

Step-by-step substitution for Dekawatt → Kilocalorie (th)/hour:V(kcal (th)/h) = V(daW) × ( 10 / 1.162222 ) = V(daW) × 8.604207

Mathematical FormulaValue in Kilocalorie (th)/hour = Value in Dekawatt × 8.6042065Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.

Worked Example

Converting 75 daW yields an exact output of 645.315488 kcal (th)/h in Kilocalorie (th)/hour. Under higher industrial throughput, 240 daW translates to 2065.00956 kcal (th)/h.

Inverse check: 1 kcal (th)/h = 0.116222 daW.
