About Watt per square centimetre kelvin
The watt per square centimetre kelvin (W/(cm²·K)) equals exactly 10⁴ W/(m²·K). Relevant for extreme cooling: nuclear reactor fuel rod cladding surfaces reach up to 5 W/(cm²·K), spray cooling and microjet impingement in power electronics reach 1-10 W/(cm²·K), and condensation of refrigerants can approach 1 W/(cm²·K). 1 W/(cm²·K) = 10⁴ W/(m²·K) = 10 kW/(m²·K).
About International table calorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius
The international table calorie per hour per square centimetre per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/(h·cm²·°C)) equals 4.1868/0.36 = 11.63 W/(m²·K) (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J). The IT variant of the CGS heat transfer unit, encountered in steam engineering references and international process industry tables alongside kcal(IT)-based figures. 1 cal(IT)/(h·cm²·°C) = 11.63 W/(m²·K).
