What Is This Tool?

This tool converts mass flow rates expressed in metric tons per minute (t/min) into pounds per second (lb/s), helping users translate measurements between metric and imperial systems used in various industrial and engineering contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in ton (metric)/minute you wish to convert
  • Select the target unit pound/second
  • Click convert to get the equivalent mass flow rate
  • Use the converted value for industrial design, monitoring, or reporting

Key Features

  • Converts mass flow rates from ton (metric)/minute to pound/second
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation
  • Supports applications in mining, bulk-material handling, aerospace, and power plants
  • Uses the official conversion rate of 1 t/min = 36.7437103641 lb/s
  • Helps standardize data for engineering and performance analysis

Examples

  • 2 t/min equals approximately 73.49 lb/s
  • 0.5 t/min converts to about 18.37 lb/s

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting throughput in mining and bulk-material conveyor systems
  • Specifying ship loading and port transfer rates for bulk cargo
  • Measuring fuel flow in gas turbine and jet engines
  • Indicating mass flow in rocket propulsion tests
  • Monitoring steam and process fluid flow in power plants

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure consistent units when combining data from metric and imperial systems
  • Consider potential rounding effects in high-precision contexts
  • Use conversions assuming steady flow rates for accuracy
  • Verify units before applying values in engineering calculations

Limitations

  • Conversion precision may be affected by rounding in high-accuracy scenarios
  • Does not account for transient or fluctuating mass flow conditions
  • Requires careful attention to unit consistency in multi-unit measurement setups
