Kilowatts per meter kelvin: conversions & definition
Kilowatts per meter kelvin (kW/(m·K)) represent thermal conductivity. One unit equals 10^3 W/(m·K). Thermal conductivity relates heat flux to temperature gradient and is measured in watts per meter-kelvin.

Keep the quantity consistent
Choose units that represent the same quantity and preserve the measurement conditions. A scale conversion changes the number and unit together; it does not change the physical amount or improve the accuracy of your measurement.
