International table calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C))
Kilocalorie per metre per hour per degree Celsius (kcal/(m·h·°C))

Conversion Formula

kcal/(m·h·°C) = cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C) × 360

About International table calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius

The cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C) equals exactly 4.1868/0.01 = 418.68 W/(m·K) (1 international table calorie = 4.1868 J). Used in pre-SI thermodynamics, steam tables, and international heat transfer references. Copper: ≈0.920 cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C). Slightly larger than cal(th)/(cm·s·°C). 1 cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C) = 418.68 W/(m·K).

About Kilocalorie per metre per hour per degree Celsius

The kcal/(m·h·°C) equals exactly 4186.8/3600 W/(m·K) = 1.163 W/(m·K) (1 kcal(IT) = 4186.8 J). Used in pre-SI continental European engineering literature, older DIN/BS standards, and Soviet-era technical documentation. Brick: ≈0.6; dense concrete: ≈1.3; carbon steel: ≈38 kcal/(m·h·°C). 1 kcal/(m·h·°C) = 1.163 W/(m·K).
