What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms thermal conductivity measurements given in calorie (th)/second/cm/°C into watt per meter per kelvin (W/(m·K)), the SI unit. It helps modernize older data recorded in thermochemical calories for use in contemporary heat transfer and thermal design analyses.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the thermal conductivity value in calorie (th)/second/cm/°C
  • Select calorie (th)/second/cm/°C as the source unit
  • Choose watt/meter/K [W/(m*K)] as the target unit
  • Click convert to see the equivalent value in watts per meter kelvin
  • Use the converted result for engineering or scientific calculations

Key Features

  • Converts legacy thermal conductivity units in thermochemical calories to SI units
  • Supports values recorded per second, centimeter thickness, and per degree Celsius
  • Provides standardized output in watt per meter per kelvin for engineering use
  • Ideal for updating older datasets and integrating with modern computational models
  • Browser-based, simple interface with no installation needed

Examples

  • 2 calorie (th)/second/cm/°C equals 836.8 W/(m·K)
  • 0.5 calorie (th)/second/cm/°C converts to 209.2 W/(m·K)

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting thermal conductivity from vintage cgs-based materials references
  • Laboratory experiments measuring heat flow with calorie-based units
  • Integrating legacy thermal data into modern SI-based heat transfer models
  • Engineering analysis of building insulation materials and electronics cooling
  • Geotechnical and geothermal heat transfer evaluations

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify the type of calorie used in your data to avoid discrepancies
  • Double-check converted values for legacy data due to rounding risks
  • Use the converter to maintain consistency with current engineering standards
  • Cross-reference material sources when updating older thermal conductivity values

Limitations

  • Calorie (th)/second/cm/°C is an older cgs unit not common in modern calculations
  • Potential rounding and interpretation issues may arise converting legacy data
  • Differences in calorie definitions can cause conversion inconsistencies

Frequently Asked Questions

What does calorie (th)/second/cm/°C measure?
It measures thermal conductivity as heat flow in thermochemical calories per second through a 1 cm thickness and 1 cm² area for a 1 °C temperature difference.
