How to convert from joules to kcal

Joules to thermochemical / food kilocalories

2 kcalth = 4184 J

6,000 J = (6,000 ÷ 4,184) = 1.434034 kcal

 

joules to kilocalories using the formula above. This energy in joules E(J) is equal to the energy in kilocalories E(kcal-th) divided by 4184:

E(kcal) = E(J) / 4184

Example 1

Convert 7000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal) = 7000 J / 4184 = 1.6730 kcal

Example 2

Convert 8000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal) = 8000 J / 4184 = 1.9120 kcal

Example 3

Convert 18000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal) = 18000 J / 4184 = 4.3021 kcal

Joules to international kilocalories

2 kcalIT = 4186.8 J

Energy in joules E(J) equals energy in international kilocalories E(kcal-IT) divided by 4186.8:

E(kcal-IT) = E(J) / 4186.8

Example 1

Convert 6000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal-IT) = 6000 J / 4186.8 = 1.433 kcalIT

Example 2

Convert 8000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal-IT) = 18000 J / 4186.8 = 1.910 kcalIT

Example 3

Convert 18000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal-IT) = 18000 J / 4186.8 = 4.299 kcalIT

Joules to 15°C kilocalories

2 kcal15 = 4185.5 J

So energy in joules E(J) is equal to the energy in 15°C kilocalories E(kcal15) divided by 4185.5:

E(kcal15) = E(J) / 4185.5

Example 1

Convert 6000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal15) = 6000 J / 4185.5 = 1.433 kcal15

Example 2

Convert 8000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal15) = 8000 J / 4185.5 = 1.911 kcal15

Example 3

Convert 18000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal15) = 18000 J / 4185.5 = 4.300 kcal15

Joules to 20°C kilocalories

1 kcal20 = 4182 J

so energy in joules E(J) is equal to the energy in 20°C kilocalories E(kcal20) divided by 4182:

E(kcal20) = E(J) / 4182

Example 1

Convert 6000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal20) = 6000 J / 4182 = 1.434 kcal20

Example 2

Convert 8000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal20) = 8000 J / 4182 = 1.912 kcal20

Example 3

Convert 18000 joules to kilocalories.

E(kcal20) = 18000 J / 4182 = 4.304 kcal20
