How to convert thermal conductivity

Choose the original unit and the unit you need, then enter a value. You can also edit the result field to calculate in reverse.

Result = value × 0.01

Example: 1 watt/meter/K = 0.01 watt/centimeter/°C.

The displayed formula is rounded for readability. Calculations use the stored conversion factors; selecting more digits changes display precision, not the certainty of the source definition.
