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 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).
