What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to transform mass flow measurements expressed in the imperial unit pound per hour (lb/h) into the metric unit centigram per second (cg/s). It serves applications ranging from industrial to laboratory scale where precise mass flow quantification is needed.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Input the numerical value of the mass flow rate in pounds per hour (lb/h)
  • Select pound/hour as the source unit and centigram/second as the target unit
  • Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in cg/s
  • Review the result for use in your intended application

Key Features

  • Accurate conversion between lb/h and cg/s units for mass flow rates
  • Supports applications in energy, HVAC, pharmaceutical, and microfluidic fields
  • Easy-to-use interface designed for both industrial and scientific users
  • Browser-based tool needing no installation or special software

Examples

  • 2 lb/h converts to 25.1995761112 cg/s
  • 0.5 lb/h converts to 6.2998940278 cg/s

Common Use Cases

  • Measuring fuel consumption rates in gas turbines and boilers using imperial units
  • Recording air, steam, or refrigerant mass flow in HVAC and process engineering
  • Calibrating low-flow laboratory dosing pumps in pharmaceutical preparations
  • Reporting reagent delivery rates in microfluidics and analytical instruments

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure flow rates remain steady and without fluctuations when converting
  • Confirm unit consistency to avoid confusion between metric and imperial systems
  • Use sensitive instruments and controlled environments for small mass flow measurements
  • Verify results especially when applying conversions in precise engineering or laboratory setups

Limitations

  • Conversion assumes a constant flow rate and does not account for variations
  • Differences in measurement standards between imperial and metric units can introduce discrepancies
  • Centigram per second measurements require careful instrumentation and environment control for accuracy

Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound/hour measure in mass flow terms?
Pound per hour measures the mass flow rate in pounds passing a point or system each hour, commonly used in imperial unit contexts.

Why convert pound/hour to centigram/second?
Converting lb/h to cg/s allows translating larger-scale imperial units into very small-scale metric units that are crucial for precise laboratory and microfluidic applications.

Are there any challenges when measuring in cg/s?
Yes, small flow rates in cg/s require highly sensitive instruments and controlled conditions to maintain measurement accuracy.

Key Terminology

Pound/hour (lb/h)
An imperial unit of mass flow rate indicating pounds of mass passing a point per hour.
Centigram/second (cg/s)
A metric unit of mass flow rate representing centigrams of mass delivered each second, used for small-scale flow measurements.
Mass flow rate
The quantity of mass passing through a surface or point per unit of time.
