Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (watt per square meter (W/m²)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)
Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)
1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 cal/(s·cm²) = 41868 watt per square meter (W/m²)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 J/(s·m²) = 1 watt per square meter (W/m²)
Step-by-step substitution for Calorie (IT)/second/square centimeter → Joule/second/square meter:V(J/(s·m²)) = V(cal/(s·cm²)) × ( 41868 / 1 ) = V(cal/(s·cm²)) × 41868
Mathematical FormulaValue in Joule/second/square meter = Value in Calorie (IT)/second/square centimeter × 41868Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
