Limitations

  • Differences in area units (square meter versus square foot) and time units (second versus hour) require careful use of the conversion factor
  • Conversion presumes uniform mass flux and steady state, limiting use under highly variable conditions
  • Non-uniform flux or extreme conditions may need more complex analysis beyond straightforward unit conversion

Frequently Asked Questions

What does gram/second/square meter measure?
It measures mass flux density, indicating how many grams of mass cross or are deposited on one square meter every second.

Why convert to kilogram/hour/square foot?
This unit is used in contexts requiring imperial units such as environmental monitoring, industrial processes, and building engineering assessments.

Can I use this conversion for non-uniform flux distributions?
No, this conversion assumes uniform flux and steady conditions; varying fluxes might need more detailed evaluation.

Key Terminology

Mass Flux Density
A measurement of mass flow rate per unit area, indicating the amount of mass passing through or being deposited on a surface over time.
Gram/second/square meter
Unit expressing grams of mass crossing one square meter every second, used in scientific contexts.
Kilogram/hour/square foot
Derived unit expressing kilograms of mass passing through one square foot every hour, commonly used in imperial measurement contexts.
