Watt per square meter
Watt per square meter expresses heat flow rate through or across a unit area.
History: This SI expression became the standard heat flux density reference in heat transfer and radiation work.
Current use: It is used in thermal engineering, building science, solar radiation, electronics cooling, and process design.
Also written as W/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).
