Convert Thermochemical calorie per second per square centimetre to Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square metre
Convert Thermochemical calorie per second per square centimetre (cal(th)/(s·cm²)) to Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square metre (kcal(th)/(h·m²)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kcal(th)/(h·m²) = cal(th)/(s·cm²) × 36000
About Thermochemical calorie per second per square centimetre
The thermochemical calorie per second per square centimetre (cal(th)/(s·cm²)) equals exactly 41840 W/m² (1 cal(th) = 4.184 J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). The CGS unit for very high heat flux: ablation heat flux during atmospheric re-entry ≈ 1-100 cal/(s·cm²). Used in plasma physics and aerospace thermal protection. 1 cal(th)/(s·cm²) = 41840 W/m².
About Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square metre
The thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square metre (kcal(th)/(h·m²)) equals 4184/3600 ≈ 1.1622 W/m² (1 kcal(th) = 4184 J; 1 h = 3600 s). Used in older continental European and Soviet-era building physics standards for wall and roof heat loss calculations. 1 kcal(th)/(h·m²) ≈ 1.1622 W/m².
