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 Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre

The thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre (kcal(th)/(h·cm²)) equals 4184/(3600×10⁻⁴) ≈ 11622 W/m² (= 10⁴ × kcal(th)/(h·m²)). A high-flux variant of the metric heat flux unit found in older combustion engineering and furnace design references. 1 kcal(th)/(h·cm²) ≈ 11622 W/m².
