What Is This Tool?

This converter enables users to transform thermal conductivity measurements from watt per meter per kelvin (W/(m*K)) into calorie (IT) per second per centimeter per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/s/cm/°C). It facilitates interpreting thermal data especially from legacy sources or non-SI publications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the thermal conductivity value in watt/meter/K (W/(m*K))
  • Select the target unit as calorie (IT)/second/cm/°C
  • Click convert to see the equivalent thermal conductivity in calorie-based units

Key Features

  • Converts thermal conductivity between SI and calorie-based units
  • Supports interpretation of legacy thermal conductivity data
  • Simple formula-based conversion for quick results
  • Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required

Examples

  • 10 W/(m·K) converts to 0.02388459 cal(IT)/s/cm/°C
  • 0.5 W/(m·K) converts to 0.00119423 cal(IT)/s/cm/°C

Common Use Cases

  • Comparing thermal conductivity of building insulation materials using different unit systems
  • Analyzing data from historical or older references reporting heat transfer in calories
  • Converting metal and alloy thermal properties reported in calorie units to SI for modern analysis

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure thickness units and temperature scales are correctly accounted for during conversion
  • Verify the calorie standard used in source data to avoid discrepancies
  • Use this tool to complement engineering design and material research involving thermal conductivity

Limitations

  • Differences may arise if calorie definitions vary, affecting precise accuracy
  • Be attentive to unit consistency such as centimeter vs. meter thickness and Celsius vs. kelvin scales
  • This tool uses direct equivalence based on standard scales but historical values might differ slightly

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert from W/(m·K) to cal(IT)/s/cm/°C?
Converting helps interpret thermal conductivity data reported in older literature or in non-SI units, enabling effective comparison with modern SI-based values.

Key Terminology

Watt per meter per kelvin (W/(m·K))
An SI derived unit measuring thermal conductivity, indicating heat transfer rate per unit area per temperature gradient over one meter thickness.
Calorie (IT)/second/cm/°C
A unit measuring thermal conductivity as heat energy transferred per second through one centimeter thickness with one degree Celsius temperature difference using the International Table calorie.
