Convert Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius to International table BTU per second per square foot per degree Fahrenheit
Convert Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius (kcal(th)/(h·cm²·°C)) to International table BTU per second per square foot per degree Fahrenheit (BTU(IT)/(s·ft²·°F)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
BTU(IT)/(s·ft²·°F) = kcal(th)/(h·cm²·°C) × 0.5685532473
About Thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius
The thermochemical kilocalorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius (kcal(th)/(h·cm²·°C)) equals ≈ 11622 W/(m²·K) (= 10⁴ × kcal(th)/(h·m²·°C)). A high-flux CGS metric unit found in older combustion engineering, industrial furnace design, and metallurgical heat treating references. 1 kcal(th)/(h·cm²·°C) ≈ 11622 W/(m²·K).
About International table BTU per second per square foot per degree Fahrenheit
The international table BTU per second per square foot per degree Fahrenheit (BTU(IT)/(s·ft²·°F)) equals ≈ 20442 W/(m²·K) (= 3600 × BTU(IT)/(h·ft²·°F)). Encountered in atmospheric re-entry aerodynamic heating analysis, solid rocket motor nozzle throat design, and nuclear reactor thermal-hydraulics with peak surface heat transfer rates. 1 BTU(IT)/(s·ft²·°F) ≈ 20442 W/(m²·K).
