What it means
How much heat does it hold?
Examples are water-filled unless stated: water takes 4,184 J to warm a kilogram by one degree. A person is taken as 70 kg.
The math
How to convert kcal/K to kJ/K
To convert kilocalories per degree to kilojoules per kelvin, multiply by 4.184.
Example: 10 kcal/K × 4.184 = 41.84 kJ/K.
In the other direction, 1 kJ/K = 0.239006 kcal/K.
