Watt/Metre/K

The watt per metre per kelvin (W/(m·K)) is the SI unit of thermal conductivity. It represents the rate of heat transfer through a material of unit thickness per unit area per unit temperature gradient. Copper has a value of ~400 W/(m·K) while insulation materials have values below 0.1 W/(m·K). 


Kilowatt/Metre/K

The kilowatt per metre per kelvin (kW/(m·K)) equals 1000 W/(m·K). It is used for highly thermally conductive materials such as pure metals and diamond (diamond ~2200 W/(m·K) ≈ 2.2 kW/(m·K)). Convenient for comparing extremely high-conductivity materials in engineering.

How to convert Watt/Metre/K to Kilowatt/Metre/K

1 W/(m·K) = 0.001 kW/(m·K). To convert any value, multiply it by 0.001. For example, 25 W/(m·K) = 0.025 kW/(m·K).

Frequently asked questions
How many kW/(m·K) are there in one W/(m·K)?
One W/(m·K) is equal to 0.001 kW/(m·K).
How do you convert Watt/Metre/K to Kilowatt/Metre/K?
Multiply the value in Watt/Metre/K by 0.001 to get the result in Kilowatt/Metre/K.
How much is 25 W/(m·K) in kW/(m·K)?
25 W/(m·K) is equal to 0.025 kW/(m·K).
How do you convert Kilowatt/Metre/K back to Watt/Metre/K?
Divide by the same factor: multiply the value in Kilowatt/Metre/K by 1000 to get Watt/Metre/K.
