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

To convert from Kilocalorie/Hour-Meter-°C (kcal/(h·m·°C)) to Milliwatt/Meter-Kelvin (mW/(m·K)), multiply the value by 1,163.

Formula: mW/(m·K) = kcal/(h·m·°C) × 1,163

Reverse: kcal/(h·m·°C) = mW/(m·K) × 0.0008598452

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 1,163
The result is: 5,815 mW/(m·K)

About Kilocalorie/Hour-Meter-°C
