Kilowatt per square meter
One kilowatt per square meter is equal to 1000 watts per square meter.
History: Kilowatt scaling is useful for high-intensity heat flux values.
Current use: This unit appears in solar concentration, combustion, industrial heating, and high-flux thermal systems.
Also written as kW/m^2.
Joule per second square meter
One joule per second square meter is equal to one watt per square meter.
History: This unit states the watt in its energy-per-time components.
Current use: It is used when heat flux is described explicitly as energy flow per second per area.
Also written as J/(s*m^2).
