About Celsius Heat Unit per hour per square foot
The Celsius heat unit per hour per square foot (CHU/(h·ft²)) equals (9/5)×1055.05585262/(3600×0.09290304) ≈ 5.6783 W/m². The CHU (= 9/5 BTU(IT)) uses a 1 °C temperature interval instead of 1 °F; historically used in UK and Canadian heating engineering. 1 CHU/(h·ft²) ≈ 5.6783 W/m² = (9/5) × BTU(IT)/(h·ft²).
About International table kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre
The international table kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre (kcal(IT)/(h·cm²)) equals 4186.8/(3600×10⁻⁴) = 11630 W/m² exactly (1 kcal(IT) = 4186.8 J; 1 h = 3600 s; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). Used in IT-based thermodynamics for high heat flux surfaces such as boiler tubes. 1 kcal(IT)/(h·cm²) = 11630 W/m².
