Degree Celsius per watt to Kelvin per watt formula and what each symbol means
K/W = °C/W × 1
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| °C/W | Degree Celsius per watt |
| K/W | Kelvin per watt |
Degree Celsius per watt to Kelvin per watt examples
1 °C/W
1 °C/W × 1 = 1 K/W.
10 °C/W
10 °C/W × 1 = 10 K/W.
100 °C/W
100 °C/W × 1 = 100 K/W.
Degree Celsius per watt compared with Kelvin per watt
One °C/W and one K/W are almost the same size, so the numbers stay close; check the factor for the small difference.
About Degree Celsius per watt and kelvin per watt
Degree Celsius per watt (°C/W): Celsius degrees per watt, numerically equal to K/W. Kelvin per watt (K/W): Kelvin per watt, the SI unit of thermal resistance.
How to calculate Degree Celsius per watt to Kelvin per watt step by step
- Enter the value in °C/W (the starting unit).
- Multiply by 1, because 1 °C/W = 1 K/W.
- The product is the value in K/W. To go back, divide by 1 or multiply by 1.
