About International table kilocalorie per hour per square metre per degree Celsius
The international table kilocalorie per hour per square metre per degree Celsius (kcal(IT)/(h·m²·°C)) equals 4186.8/3600 ≈ 1.1633 W/(m²·K) (1 kcal(IT) = 4186.8 J). The IT variant used in steam turbine, power plant, and process industry engineering. Numerically slightly larger than the thermochemical counterpart. 1 kcal(IT)/(h·m²·°C) ≈ 1.1633 W/(m²·K).
About Thermochemical calorie per second per square centimetre per degree Celsius
The thermochemical calorie per second per square centimetre per degree Celsius (cal(th)/(s·cm²·°C)) equals exactly 41840 W/(m²·K) (1 cal(th) = 4.184 J; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²; 1 °C = 1 K). The CGS unit for very high heat transfer coefficients in plasma-facing components, ablative heat shield characterisation, and shock tube experiments in aerospace research. 1 cal(th)/(s·cm²·°C) = 41840 W/(m²·K).
