About International table calorie per second per square centimetre per degree Celsius
The international table calorie per second per square centimetre per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/(s·cm²·°C)) equals exactly 41868 W/(m²·K) (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²; 1 °C = 1 K). Slightly larger than the thermochemical variant; used in IT-based thermophysical property tables for extreme thermal environments such as nuclear and fusion reactor surfaces. 1 cal(IT)/(s·cm²·°C) = 41868 W/(m²·K).
About Milliwatt per square metre kelvin
The milliwatt per square metre kelvin (mW/(m²·K)) equals 10⁻³ W/(m²·K). Used in thermal characterization of advanced superinsulation panels and cryogenic multilayer insulation (MLI) in space applications, where effective heat transfer coefficients as low as 0.5-5 mW/(m²·K) are achieved in high-vacuum multilayer systems. 1 mW/(m²·K) = 10⁻³ W/(m²·K).
