What does teragram per second (Tg/s) measure?

It measures mass flow rate equal to 10^12 grams per second, representing extremely large-scale mass transport such as in astrophysical events.

What is a metric ton per hour (t/h)?

A metric ton per hour is a unit of mass flow where one metric tonne (1000 kg) passes a point or is processed each hour.

Why convert Tg/s to t/h?

To translate large-scale scientific mass flow rates into industrially relevant units for easier analysis and reporting.

What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to transform mass flow rates measured in teragrams per second into metric tons per hour. It is particularly helpful for interpreting extremely large-scale mass fluxes seen in astrophysical or geophysical phenomena into more commonly used industrial measurements.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the value in teragram per second (Tg/s) you wish to convert.
Select the input unit as teragram per second and the output unit as ton (metric) per hour.
Click the convert button to obtain the equivalent mass flow in metric tons per hour (t/h).

Key Features

Converts teragram per second (Tg/s) to metric ton per hour (t/h) with a fixed conversion rate.
Supports handling of very large mass flow rates relevant in scientific and industrial contexts.
Browser-based and easy to use for quick unit conversions.

Examples

0.5 Tg/s equals 1,800,000,000 t/h.
2 Tg/s equals 7,200,000,000 t/h.

Common Use Cases

Describing mass-ejection rates in astrophysical events such as supernova outflows.
Representing planetary-scale mass loss or gain during extreme atmospheric events.
Expressing boiler or steam plant capacity in tonnes of steam produced per hour.
Specifying throughput of bulk materials like coal or grain in industrial conveyors.
Reporting feedstock or product flow rates in refineries and chemical plants.

Tips & Best Practices

Use this tool only for extremely large mass flow rates due to the scale of Tg/s.
Avoid using teragram/second units for routine industrial measurements where smaller units are more suitable.
Cross-check the converted values for consistency in the context of your specific application.

Limitations

Teragram/second represents extraordinarily large flows that exceed typical industrial scales.
Conversion to metric tons per hour is meaningful primarily for very large mass flows; smaller flows are better expressed with other units.
Care should be taken not to apply this conversion indiscriminately in routine or small-scale industrial settings.
