Watt per square inch to watt per square meter Conversion
1 watt per square inch (W/in²) is equal to 1550.0031 watt per square meter (W/m²).
1 W/in² = 1550.0031 W/m²
or
1 W/m² = 0.00064516 W/in²
Formula
To convert a heat flux density from watt per square inch (W/in²) to watt per square meter (W/m²), multiply the heat flux density in watt per square inch by 1550.0031
h(W/m²) = h(W/in²) × 1550.0031
Examples:
Convert 50 watt per square inch to watt per square meter:
h(W/m²) = 50W/in² × 1550.0031 = 77500.155 W/m²
