About International table calorie per second per square centimetre
The international table calorie per second per square centimetre (cal(IT)/(s·cm²)) equals exactly 41868 W/m² (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). The IT variant of the high-flux CGS unit, slightly larger than the thermochemical counterpart due to the IT calorie definition. 1 cal(IT)/(s·cm²) = 41868 W/m².
About Megawatt per square metre
The megawatt per square metre (MW/m²) equals exactly 10⁶ W/m². Used in fusion reactor engineering (plasma-facing components: 10-20 MW/m²), concentrated solar power tower receivers (≈1-3 MW/m²), and hypervelocity shock studies. Numerically equal to W/mm². 1 MW/m² = 10⁶ W/m² = 1 W/mm².
