Convert International table kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre to Milliwatt per square centimetre
Convert International table kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre (kcal(IT)/(h·cm²)) to Milliwatt per square centimetre (mW/cm²) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
mW/cm² = kcal(IT)/(h·cm²) × 1163
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.
About Milliwatt per square centimetre
The milliwatt per square centimetre (mW/cm²) equals exactly 10 W/m² (1 mW = 10⁻³ W; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). Widely used in photonics, laser safety standards (IEC 60825), and UV dosimetry. Solar irradiance at Earth's surface ≈ 100 mW/cm². 1 mW/cm² = 10 W/m² = 0.001 W/cm².
