Joule per square meter to kilojoule per square meter Conversion
1 joule per square meter (J/m²) is equal to 0.001 kilojoule per square meter (kJ/m²).
1 J/m² = 0.001 kJ/m²
or
1 kJ/m² = 1000 J/m²
Formula
To convert a heat density from joule per square meter (J/m²) to kilojoule per square meter (kJ/m²), divide the heat density in joule per square meter by 1000
h(kJ/m²) = h(J/m²) / 1000
Examples:
Convert 100 joule per square meter to kilojoule per square meter:
h(kJ/m²) = 100J/m² / 1000 = 0.1 kJ/m²
