Watt Per Centimeter Per Celsius Degree (W/cm-°C) is a unit in the category of Thermal conductivity. This unit is commonly used in the cgs unit system. Watt Per Centimeter Per Celsius Degree (W/cm-°C) has a dimension of MLT^-3Q^-1 where M is mass, L is length, T is time, and Q is temperatur. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit W/m-K by multiplying its value by a factor of 100.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).
