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:
1 cal (th)/(s·cm²) = 41840 watt per square meter (W/m²)1 kcal/(h·m²) = 1.163 watt per square meter (W/m²)V(kcal/(h·m²)) = V(cal (th)/(s·cm²)) × ( 41840 / 1.163 ) = V(cal (th)/(s·cm²)) × 35975.9148Value in Kilocalorie (IT)/hour/square meter = Value in Calorie (th)/second/square centimeter × 35975.9148Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.For an engineering input of 75 cal (th)/(s·cm²), applying the conversion factor yields exactly 2698193.61 kcal/(h·m²).
