Which mass flow units are supported?

The converter supports kg/s, lb/h, and t/h.

What value should I enter?

Enter a non-negative mass flow value in the selected input unit.

Which conversion basis is used?

Conversions use kg/s as the intermediate unit, with 1 lb equal to 0.45359237 kg and 1 t equal to 1000 kg.

Does the result include other unit equivalents?

Yes. The JSON result lists equivalent values in kg/s, lb/h, and t/h.

How many decimal places can I display?

You can choose from 0 to 10 decimal places; the default is 4.

Mass Flow Rate Converter (kg/s / lb/h / t/h)

Convert mass flow rate between kg/s (kilograms per second, SI base), lb/h (pounds per hour, 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg), and t/h (tonnes per hour, 1 t = 1000 kg). Converts via kg/s to the target unit and also lists the equivalent value in all three units for reference. Used for boiler feedwater, chemical dosing, fuel consumption, and compressed-gas metering.

2 kg/s → lb/h ≈ 15873.2829

2 kg/s ÷ (0.45359237/3600) = 15873.2829 lb/h. Equivalent: 7.2 t/h. Typical boiler feedwater flow.

{"result":"2 kg/s = 15873.2829 lb/h. All units: kg/s=2, lb/h=15873.2829, t/h=7.2.","metadata":{"input":{"inputUnit":"kg/s","value":2,"outputUnit":"lb/h"},"result":{"outputValue":15873.2829,"outputUnit":"lb/h","kgs":2,"lbh":15873.2829,"th":7.2}}}

5000 lb/h → t/h ≈ 2.2680

5000 lb/h × (0.45359237/3600) kg/s = 0.62999 kg/s × 3.6 = 2.2680 t/h. Equivalent: 0.6300 kg/s. Steam/fuel rating in mixed-unit plants.
