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 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).
