Convert specific heat capacity units — J/(kg·K), BTU/(lb·°F), cal/(g·°C) and more.
| Unit | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| J/(kg·K) | Joule/(Kilogram·Kelvin) | 4186.8 |
| kJ/(kg·K) | Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin) | 4.1868 |
| BTU/(lb·°F) | BTU/(Pound·°F) | 1 |
| kcal/(kg·°C) | Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C) | 1 |
Multiply the number of Calorie/(Gram·°C)s by 4.1868 to get Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin)s. Formula: kJ/(kg·K) = cal/(g·°C) × 4.1868. Example: 10 cal/(g·°C) × 4.1868 = 41.868 kJ/(kg·K). To reverse, divide Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin)s by 4.1868 to get Calorie/(Gram·°C)s.

To convert Calorie/(Gram·°C) to Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin), multiply by 4.1868. Example: 10 cal/(g·°C) = 41.868 kJ/(kg·K)
To convert Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin) back to Calorie/(Gram·°C), divide by 4.1868 (multiply by 0.238846). Use the swap button above.
Start with 100 Calorie/(Gram·°C)s = 418.68 kJ/(kg·K) as your reference point. Scale up or down from there.
The Calorie/(Gram·°C) is a unit of Specific Heat measurement (symbol: cal/(g·°C)). 1 cal/(g·°C) = 4.1868 kJ/(kg·K). Used in scientific and practical Specific Heat measurement applications.
The Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin) is a unit of Specific Heat measurement (symbol: kJ/(kg·K)). It is part of an internationally recognised measurement system used alongside the Calorie/(Gram·°C).
Both the Calorie/(Gram·°C) and Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin) developed through the standardisation of Specific Heat measurement. Converting between them is a common requirement in science, engineering, and everyday applications where different measurement systems are used.
Common use: Calorie/(Gram·°C) to Kilojoule/(Kilogram·Kelvin) conversion is needed when working with international standards, scientific publications, or reference materials that use different unit systems for Specific Heat measurement.
