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