How to Convert Calorie/Second-Centimeter-°C to Kilowatt/Meter-Kelvin

To convert from Calorie/Second-Centimeter-°C (cal/(s·cm·°C)) to Kilowatt/Meter-Kelvin (kW/(m·K)), multiply the value by 0.4184.

Formula: kW/(m·K) = cal/(s·cm·°C) × 0.4184

Reverse: cal/(s·cm·°C) = kW/(m·K) × 2.3900573614

Step-by-Step Example

Start with your value in Calorie/Second-Centimeter-°C. For example: 5 cal/(s·cm·°C)
Multiply by the conversion factor: 5 x 0.4184
The result is: 2.092 kW/(m·K)

About Calorie/Second-Centimeter-°C
