Conversion Formula
µW/m² = MW/m² × 1000000000000
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.
About Microwatt per square metre
The microwatt per square metre (µW/m²) equals 10⁻⁶ W/m². Encountered in geothermal science - deep crustal heat flux measurements in stable shield regions can reach a few µW/m² - and in bio-electromagnetic research for very low intensity radiation fields. 1 µW/m² = 10⁻⁶ W/m² = 10³ nW/m².
