Convert Microwatt per metre kelvin to Kilowatt per metre kelvin
Convert Microwatt per metre kelvin (µW/(m·K)) to Kilowatt per metre kelvin (kW/(m·K)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kW/(m·K) = µW/(m·K) × 1.000000000e-9
About Microwatt per metre kelvin
The microwatt per metre kelvin (µW/(m·K)) equals exactly 10⁻⁶ W/(m·K). Used for near-vacuum conditions and evacuated superinsulation systems where the effective thermal conductivity falls well below the mW/(m·K) range. Evacuated multi-layer insulation (MLI) at high vacuum can reach 0.001-10 µW/(m·K) effective conductivity. Completes the SI prefix chain below mW/(m·K). 1 µW/(m·K) = 10⁻⁶ W/(m·K) = 10⁻³ mW/(m·K).
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).
