What Is This Tool?

This unit converter helps you transform mass flow rates measured in pound/hour, an imperial unit commonly used in engineering, into hectogram/second, a metric unit suited for precision measuring in laboratory and industrial processes.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the mass flow value in pounds per hour (lb/h).
  • Select pound/hour as the input unit and hectogram/second as the output unit.
  • Click convert to get the equivalent value in hectogram/second (hg/s).

Key Features

  • Converts mass flow from pound/hour (lb/h) to hectogram/second (hg/s).
  • Supports applications in engineering, food, pharmaceutical, and laboratory settings.
  • Provides instant calculation using an exact conversion rate.

Examples

  • 10 lb/h converts to 0.012599788 hg/s.
  • 50 lb/h converts to 0.06299894 hg/s.

Common Use Cases

  • Determining fuel consumption rates for gas turbines, boilers, and burners in imperial units.
  • Measuring air, steam, or refrigerant flows in HVAC and process engineering with imperial units.
  • Dosing granular or powdered materials in food and pharmaceutical production.
  • Reporting mass flow in bench-scale chemical reactors and pilot plants.
  • Specifying propellant feed rates for small laboratory engines or test rigs.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use pound/hour units for larger industrial mass flow rates and hectogram/second for smaller precise flows.
  • Ensure input values are accurate to achieve reliable conversion results.
  • Choose the unit best suited for your industry context—imperial for engineering and metric for laboratory applications.

Limitations

  • Hectogram/second is better suited for small scale, high-precision flows than pound/hour.
  • Rounding differences may occur due to unit definitions and measurement precision.
  • Consider scale and accuracy requirements before selecting units for critical applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is one pound per hour?
One pound per hour (lb/h) is a mass flow unit representing the mass passing a point each hour, commonly used in imperial measurement systems.

How does hectogram per second relate to kilograms per second?
One hectogram per second (hg/s) equals 0.1 kilograms per second, as it is based on one hundred grams passing per second.

Why convert from lb/h to hg/s?
Conversion from pound/hour to hectogram/second helps translate mass flow data from imperial units to metric units favored in precise dosing and laboratory environments.

Key Terminology

Pound/hour [lb/h]
A mass flow unit describing pounds of mass passing a point each hour, used primarily in imperial unit systems.
Hectogram/second [hg/s]
A mass flow rate unit indicating hectograms (100 grams) passing through a cross-section each second, aligned with metric standards.
