Convert mass flow rate units including kilograms per second, grams per second, pounds per hour, pounds per minute, tons per hour, slugs per second, and more.
Kilograms per second to pounds per hour:
1 kg/s = 7,936.64 lb/hr
Pounds per hour to kilograms per second:
1 lb/hr = 0.000125998 kg/s
Grams per second to kilograms per hour:
1 g/s = 3.6 kg/hr
Pounds per minute to kilograms per second:
1 lb/min = 0.00755987 kg/s
Mass flow rate conversions are useful for process piping, fuel systems, air handling, steam systems, chemical processing, combustion calculations, pumps, compressors, and fluid engineering design.
Use this converter when comparing metric, U.S. customary, and industrial mass flow units.
Your result shows the entered mass flow rate converted from the starting unit into the selected ending unit. The calculator also shows the conversion rate used so you can verify the calculation.
For engineering and process calculations, make sure the mass flow unit matches the equipment rating, design sheet, process formula, or specification you are using.
Mass flow rate is the amount of mass moving through a system per unit of time.
The common SI unit of mass flow rate is kilograms per second, abbreviated as kg/s.
No. Mass flow rate measures mass per time, while volumetric flow rate measures volume per time. Density connects the two.
Multiply pounds per hour by 0.000125998 to convert to kilograms per second.
This converter is designed for mass flow rate magnitude conversions, so it uses non-negative values.
