1 W/in² = 0.15500031 W/cm²
or
1 W/cm² = 6.4516 W/in²
Formula
To convert a heat flux density from watt per square inch (W/in²) to watt per square centimeter (W/cm²), divide the heat flux density in watt per square inch by 6.4516
h(W/cm²) = h(W/in²) / 6.4516
Examples:
Convert 1000 watt per square inch to watt per square centimeter:
h(W/cm²) = 1000W/in² / 6.4516 = 155.00031 W/cm²
