Watt per square centimeter to kilowatt per square meter Conversion
1 watt per square centimeter (W/cm²) is equal to 10 kilowatt per square meter (kW/m²).
1 W/cm² = 10 kW/m²
or
1 kW/m² = 0.1 W/cm²
Formula
To convert a heat flux density from watt per square centimeter (W/cm²) to kilowatt per square meter (kW/m²), multiply the heat flux density in watt per square centimeter by 10
h(kW/m²) = h(W/cm²) × 10
Examples:
Convert 50 watt per square centimeter to kilowatt per square meter:
h(kW/m²) = 50W/cm² × 10 = 500 kW/m²
