Conversion Formula

mW/(m·°C) = W/(cm·K) × 100000

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).

About Milliwatt per metre degree Celsius

The milliwatt per metre degree Celsius (mW/(m·°C)) equals exactly 1 mW/(m·K) = 10⁻³ W/(m·K) since temperature intervals 1 °C = 1 K. Used interchangeably with mW/(m·K) in building physics, insulation standards (EN ISO 10456), and material datasheets where Celsius is the preferred temperature scale. Still air ≈26 mW/(m·°C); mineral wool ≈35 mW/(m·°C). 1 mW/(m·°C) = 1 mW/(m·K) = 10⁻³ W/(m·K).
