Convert Microwatt per metre kelvin to Watt per centimetre kelvin
Convert Microwatt per metre kelvin (µW/(m·K)) to Watt per centimetre kelvin (W/(cm·K)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
W/(cm·K) = µW/(m·K) × 1.000000000e-8
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 Watt per centimetre kelvin
The watt per centimetre kelvin (W/(cm·K)) equals exactly 100 W/(m·K). Used for highly conductive materials in electronics and cryogenics: silver ≈4.29, copper ≈3.85, aluminium ≈2.05 W/(cm·K); synthetic diamond ≈22 W/(cm·K). Common in semiconductor and power device literature where component dimensions are centimetre-scale. 1 W/(cm·K) = 100 W/(m·K).
