4070N/A/ There are 5 different small calories. The one used here is the "IT
4070N/A/ calorie". The "USA calorie" or "thermochemical calorie" is 4.184 joule
6033N/A/ (exact). The "calorie at 15 deg C" is 4.1855 joule fuzz. The "calorie
6033N/A/ at 20 deg C" is 4.1819 joule fuzz. The "mean calorie" is 4.19002 joule
4070N/A/ fuzz. The large Calorie is a thousand of (one of) these calories.
4070N/A/ note that degF and degC are suitable for converting temperature intervals,
4070N/A/ but not actual temperatures on the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.
