How to Convert Kilocalorie/Hour-Meter-°C to Kilowatt/Meter-Kelvin

To convert from Kilocalorie/Hour-Meter-°C (kcal/(h·m·°C)) to Kilowatt/Meter-Kelvin (kW/(m·K)), multiply the value by 0.001163.

Formula: kW/(m·K) = kcal/(h·m·°C) × 0.001163

Reverse: kcal/(h·m·°C) = kW/(m·K) × 859.845227859

Step-by-Step Example

Start with your value in Kilocalorie/Hour-Meter-°C. For example: 5 kcal/(h·m·°C)
Multiply by the conversion factor: 5 x 0.001163
The result is: 0.005815 kW/(m·K)

About Kilocalorie/Hour-Meter-°C
