Convert Watt per centimetre kelvin to Watt per metre degree Celsius
Convert Watt per centimetre kelvin (W/(cm·K)) to Watt per metre degree Celsius (W/(m·°C)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
W/(m·°C) = W/(cm·K) × 100
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 Watt per metre degree Celsius
The watt per metre degree Celsius (W/(m·°C)) equals exactly 1 W/(m·K) since temperature intervals 1 °C = 1 K. Widely used in building physics (EN ISO 6946), HVAC engineering, and European material datasheets as an equivalent notation. Stone: ≈2.5 W/(m·°C); softwood timber: ≈0.14 W/(m·°C); glass wool: ≈0.04 W/(m·°C). 1 W/(m·°C) = 1 W/(m·K).
