About Watt per square metre kelvin

The watt per square metre kelvin (W/(m²·K)) is the SI coherent unit for heat transfer coefficient (ISO 80000-5). Typical values: free convection in still air 2-25 W/(m²·K), forced-air cooling 25-250 W/(m²·K), natural water convection 200-1000 W/(m²·K), forced water up to 10 000 W/(m²·K), nucleate boiling up to 100 000 W/(m²·K). 1 W/(m²·K) = 1 J/(s·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).
