How to Convert Kilocalorie (IT) per Hour per Meter per Degree Celsius to Calorie (IT) per Second per Centimeter per Degree Celsius

Conversion Formula

1 kcal/(h·m·°C) = 0.003 cal/(s·cm·°C)
1 cal/(s·cm·°C) = 360 kcal/(h·m·°C)

Example

Convert 15 kcal/(h·m·°C) to cal/(s·cm·°C):

15 kcal/(h·m·°C) = 15 × 0.003 cal/(s·cm·°C) = 0.042 cal/(s·cm·°C)
