About Thermochemical calorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius
The thermochemical calorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius (cal(th)/(h·cm²·°C)) equals 4.184/0.36 ≈ 11.622 W/(m²·K) (1 cal(th) = 4.184 J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). A CGS-derived unit found in older heat transfer textbooks and chemical engineering publications, especially in Eastern European and Japanese technical literature. 1 cal(th)/(h·cm²·°C) ≈ 11.622 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).
