Convert Thermochemical calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius to Kilowatt per metre degree Celsius

Convert Thermochemical calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius (cal(th)/(cm·s·°C)) to Kilowatt per metre degree Celsius (kW/(m·°C)) instantly and accurately.

Thermochemical calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius (cal(th)/(cm·s·°C))
Kilowatt per metre degree Celsius (kW/(m·°C))

Conversion Formula

kW/(m·°C) = cal(th)/(cm·s·°C) × 0.4184

About Thermochemical calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius

The cal(th)/(cm·s·°C) equals exactly 4.184/0.01 = 418.4 W/(m·K) (1 thermochemical calorie = 4.184 J). The CGS thermal conductivity unit dominant in US physics and chemistry before SI adoption. Copper: ≈0.921; aluminium: ≈0.489 cal(th)/(cm·s·°C). Not equal to cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C). 1 cal(th)/(cm·s·°C) = 418.4 W/(m·K).

About Kilowatt per metre degree Celsius

The kilowatt per metre degree Celsius (kW/(m·°C)) equals exactly 1 kW/(m·K) = 1000 W/(m·K) since temperature intervals 1 °C = 1 K. An alternative notation for kW/(m·K) used in European engineering and scientific literature. Type IIa diamond ≈2.2 kW/(m·°C); crystalline silicon ≈0.14 kW/(m·°C); ²⁸Si single crystal ≈1.0 kW/(m·°C). 1 kW/(m·°C) = 1 kW/(m·K) = 1000 W/(m·K).
