Convert watt/square meter/°c to watt/square meter/k
Watt/Square Meter/°C
The watt per square metre per degree Celsius (W/(m²·°C)) is numerically equal to W/(m²·K) since a Celsius interval equals one kelvin. It is commonly used in building physics and HVAC engineering where temperature is expressed in Celsius rather than kelvin, representing the same physical quantity.
Watt/Square Meter/K
The watt per square metre per kelvin (W/(m²·K)) is the SI unit of heat transfer coefficient, also known as the U-value or film coefficient. It quantifies the rate of heat transfer per unit area per unit temperature difference. Typical values range from 2–25 W/(m²·K) for free convection to over 10,000 W/(m²·K) for boiling.
