calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin to watt per meter kelvin
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin [cal/(h·cm·K)] to watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)], or change ↔.
calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin [cal/(h·cm·K)]
Definition: A unit of thermal conductivity used to measure heat flow in calories per hour per centimeter for each degree Kelvin.
Historyandorigin: Like other calorie-based units, this measure was once common in the study of thermal properties but has fallen out of widespread use.
CurrentUse: It’s now largely replaced by the watt, joule, and newer SI units for practical applications, though it may still be used in specific contexts or historical measurements.
funfact: The calorie per hour is typically used when dealing with slow heat transfer processes, such as in geological studies!
watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
Definition: The SI unit for thermal conductivity, measuring the ability of a material to conduct heat, defined as the amount of heat (in watts) that flows through a meter length of a material for every degree of temperature difference per unit of surface area.
Historyandorigin: The watt per meter kelvin is part of the International System of Units (SI), introduced in the 19th century as a way to standardize heat conductivity measurement.
CurrentUse: Used globally in material science, engineering, and building physics to assess thermal insulation properties of materials.
funfact: Materials like metals tend to have high thermal conductivity, while insulators like rubber have very low values!

How to Convert calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin to watt per meter kelvin
1 calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin [cal/(h·cm·K)] = 0.001163 watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
1 watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)] = 859.84522786 calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin [cal/(h·cm·K)]
we use cross multiplication method
calorie (IT) per hour per centimeter kelvin [cal/(h·cm·K)] → watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
1 → 0.001163
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001163=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0017445
