What Is This Tool?

This converter enables you to change mass flow values from metric tons per hour (t/h) to pounds per hour (lb/h). It helps translate measurements between metric and imperial units commonly used in various industrial applications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the mass flow value in metric tons per hour (t/h)
  • Select the source unit: ton (metric)/hour [t/h]
  • Choose the target unit: pound/hour [lb/h]
  • View the converted result displayed in pounds per hour

Key Features

  • Converts mass flow rates from metric tons per hour to pounds per hour
  • Includes precise conversion using the established rate of 1 t/h = 2204.6226218488 lb/h
  • Supports typical industrial measurements in power generation, mining, chemical, and HVAC sectors
  • Easy-to-use interface for quick and accurate unit conversion

Examples

  • Convert 5 t/h to lb/h: 5 × 2204.6226218488 = 11023.113109244 lb/h
  • Convert 0.1 t/h to lb/h: 0.1 × 2204.6226218488 = 220.46226218488 lb/h

Common Use Cases

  • Expressing boiler or steam plant capacity in tonnes or pounds per hour
  • Measuring throughput of bulk materials like coal, ore, or grain on conveyors
  • Reporting feedstock or product flow rates in chemical and process plants
  • Specifying fuel consumption rates in gas turbines and burners using imperial units
  • Calculating air, steam, or refrigerant mass flow in HVAC applications with imperial units
  • Controlling feed or purge mass flows in industrial process instrumentation

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure values are entered accurately in metric tons per hour before conversion
  • Use the precise conversion factor for consistency and comparability
  • Be mindful of decimal precision when reporting converted values
  • Consider rounding or fixed decimal places when applying results in real-time control
  • Understand the context of your flow to avoid misinterpretation caused by changes in fluid state

Limitations

  • Conversion relies on an irrational conversion factor, requiring attention to decimal accuracy
  • Real-time process control may necessitate rounding to simplify calculations
  • Assumes a uniform mass flow without accounting for variable fluid conditions or states

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 1 ton (metric)/hour represent?
It represents a mass flow rate of one metric tonne, or 1000 kilograms, passing a point every hour.

Why convert mass flows to pounds per hour?
Because some industries or regions use imperial units, converting allows easier communication and integration of data.

Can this converter be used in process control systems?
Yes, but consider rounding or fixed decimal places to handle decimal precision and avoid complexity in real-time applications.

Key Terminology

Ton (metric)/hour [t/h]
A unit of mass flow rate equal to 1000 kilograms passing a point each hour, used to measure flow in metric units.
Pound/hour [lb/h]
A unit of mass flow rate describing pounds passing a point every hour, typically used in imperial measurement systems.
Mass flow rate
The quantity of mass passing through a system or point per unit time.
