How to convert from kilojoules to kcal

Kilojoules to thermochemical / food kilocalories

1 kcal_th = 4.184 kJ

The energy in kilojoules E_(kJ) is equal to the energy in kilocalories E_(kcal-th) divided by 4.184:

E_(kcal) = E_(kJ) / 4.184

Example

Convert 5 kilojoules to kilocalories.

E_(kcal) = 5 kJ / 4.184 = 1.195 kcal

Kilojoules to international kilocalories

1 kcal_IT = 4.1868 kJ

The energy in kilojoules E_(kJ) is equal to 4.1868 times the energy in international kilocalories E_(kcal-IT):

E_(kcal-IT) = E_(kJ) / 4.1868

Example

Convert 5 kilojoules to kilocalories.

E_(kcal-IT) = 5 kJ / 4.1868 = 1.194 kcal_IT

Kilojoules to 15ºC kilocalories

1 kcal₁₅ = 4.1855 kJ

The energy in kilojoules E_(kJ) is equal to 4.1855 times the energy in 15ºC kilocalories E_(kcal15):

E_(kcal15) = E_(kJ) / 4.1855

Example

Convert 5 kilojoules to kilocalories.

E_(kcal15) = 5 kJ / 4.1855 = 1.195 kcal₁₅

Kilojoules to 20ºC kilocalories

1 kcal₂₀ = 4.182 kJ

The energy in kilojoules E_(J) is equal to 4.182 times the energy in 20ºC kilocalories E_(kcal20):

E_(kcal20) = E_(kJ) / 4.182

Example

Convert 5 kilojoules to kilocalories.

E_(kcal20) = 5 kJ / 4.182 = 1.196 kcal₂₀
