calorie (IT) per second per meter kelvin to watt per meter kelvin
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT) per second per meter kelvin [cal/(s·m·K)] to watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)], or change ↔.
calorie (IT) per second per meter kelvin [cal/(s·m·K)]
Definition: A unit of thermal conductivity based on the calorie, used for measuring the heat transfer in calories per second per meter of material for each degree Kelvin.
Historyandorigin: Used historically in scientific studies, especially in thermodynamics, when the calorie was more commonly used.
CurrentUse: This unit has largely been replaced by the SI unit (watt per meter kelvin), but still appears in older research and some niche applications.
funfact: While not common today, it was once a standard unit in physics and chemistry laboratories!
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 second per meter kelvin to watt per meter kelvin
1 calorie (IT) per second per meter kelvin [cal/(s·m·K)] = 4.1868 watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
1 watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)] = 0.2388458966 calorie (IT) per second per meter kelvin [cal/(s·m·K)]
we use cross multiplication method
calorie (IT) per second per meter kelvin [cal/(s·m·K)] → watt per meter kelvin [W/(m·K)]
1 → 4.1868
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*4.1868=1*x
by simplifying
x=6.2802
