Kilowatt per metre kelvin (kW/(m·K))
International table calorie per centimetre per second per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C))

Conversion Formula

cal(IT)/(cm·s·°C) = kW/(m·K) × 2.388458966

About Kilowatt per metre kelvin

The kilowatt per metre kelvin (kW/(m·K)) equals exactly 1000 W/(m·K). Used for exceptionally conductive materials: type IIa diamond ≈2.2 kW/(m·K), isotopically pure ²⁸Si ≈1.0 kW/(m·K), single-crystal graphene > 5 kW/(m·K) at room temperature. Convenient for comparing advanced thermal management and heat spreader materials. 1 kW/(m·K) = 1000 W/(m·K).

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).
