I asked this question some time ago and never got a clear answer,
so I'm trying again.

Is there an easy way to figure out how many calories are burned
by a given amount of exercise, given that I can actually measure
energy output?

For example, suppose someone puts out 150 watts for 15 minutes.
How many calories of intake are necessary to produce that much
output?
