Convert watt/square metre to kilocalorie (it)/hour/square metre
Watt/Square Metre
The watt per square metre (W/m²) is the SI unit of heat flux density and irradiance. It represents the power transmitted per unit area. The solar constant (total solar irradiance) at Earth's orbit is approximately 1361 W/m². Used in heat transfer engineering, solar energy, and thermal radiation analysis.
Kilocalorie (IT)/Hour/Square Metre
The kilocalorie (IT) per hour per square metre (kcal/(h·m²)) equals approximately 1.163 W/m². It is used in older European engineering standards and building physics for expressing heat flux through walls, floors, and ceilings. Common in older HVAC and building energy standards.
