What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms heat transfer coefficient measurements from calorie (IT) per second per square centimeter per degree Celsius into the SI unit watt per square meter per kelvin. It is useful for translating older or experimental data into standardized units for engineering and thermal performance evaluations.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Input the value in calorie (IT) per second per square centimeter per degree Celsius.
  • Select the units to convert from and to (calorie (IT)/s/cm²/°C to watt/m²/K).
  • Click the convert button to obtain the result in watt per square meter per kelvin.

Key Features

  • Converts convective heat transfer coefficients between calorie (IT)/s/cm²/°C and watt/m²/K units.
  • Supports heat transfer analysis in heat exchangers, HVAC systems, and building envelope assessments.
  • Quickly translates legacy data to modern SI standards for consistent engineering calculations.

Examples

  • 1 calorie (IT)/second/square centimeter/°C equals 41868 watt/square meter/K.
  • 0.5 calorie (IT)/second/square centimeter/°C equals 20934 watt/square meter/K.

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying convective heat transfer coefficients for fluid flow over surfaces in heat exchanger design.
  • Reporting experimental surface heat transfer measurements in convection studies.
  • Evaluating thermal performance of building elements documented in older technical literature.
  • Calculating U-values for building envelopes to quantify heat loss.
  • Thermal management of electronic components and heatsink designs.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure consistent units are used throughout thermal system calculations to avoid errors.
  • Convert legacy data carefully to align with international SI standards.
  • Understand the equivalence of temperature intervals between degree Celsius and kelvin when applying conversions.

Limitations

  • The conversion assumes direct equivalence between degree Celsius and kelvin temperature differences.
  • Users must maintain consistent unit systems in complex thermal models to prevent confusion.
