It helps translate measurements of mass flow rate per unit area from metric time units to imperial time units, facilitating comparisons and calculations in various technical fields.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in kilogram/hour/square foot you wish to convert.
  • Select kilogram/hour/square foot as the input unit.
  • Choose pound/second/square foot as the output unit.
  • Click the convert button to view the equivalent mass flux density.
  • Review the results along with example calculations for reference.

Key Features

  • Converts mass flux density from kilogram/hour/square foot to pound/second/square foot.
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface for quick conversions.
  • Supports application in environmental, combustion, HVAC, and industrial processes.
  • Displays conversion formulas and example calculations for clarity.
  • Assists in translating metric-based mass flow rates into imperial units.

Examples

  • 10 kilogram/hour/square foot equals 0.006123952 pound/second/square foot.
  • 50 kilogram/hour/square foot equals 0.03061976 pound/second/square foot.

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting pollutant or particulate deposition rates on surfaces in environmental monitoring using imperial area units.
  • Specifying spray or coating application rates where mass per area per time is controlled in industrial processes.
  • Characterizing condensate or moisture flux through building envelopes or HVAC components using customary units.
  • Defining mass flux at fuel injector faces in combustion and propulsion engineering.
  • Describing evaporative or condensation mass transfer in heat transfer and phase-change studies.
  • Assessing particulate or moisture loading per area in duct or filtration design for HVAC and ventilation.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure that surface area units remain consistent as square foot when performing conversions.
  • Use this tool to translate metric-based mass flux density values into compatible imperial units for engineering assessments.
  • Refer to the example calculations to validate your conversion results.
  • Be aware of the conversion factor’s small magnitude when working with low-value measurements.
  • Apply the converted values carefully in environmental or industrial contexts, considering operational conditions.

Limitations

  • This conversion assumes the surface area units are consistently square foot and does not adjust for temperature, pressure, or fluid property variations.
  • The conversion factor is small, so high precision is necessary when working with low magnitude values.
  • It does not account for physical or chemical changes affecting mass flux beyond unit translation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does kilogram/hour/square foot measure?
It measures mass flux density by quantifying the mass in kilograms passing through or deposited on one square foot of area per hour.

Where is pound/second/square foot commonly used?
It is used in combustion, heat transfer, HVAC, and industrial ventilation to express mass flow rate per square foot each second in the imperial system.

Why convert kilogram/hour/square foot to pound/second/square foot?
To translate mass flux values between metric and imperial units, enabling compatibility in environmental, engineering, and industrial analyses.

Key Terminology

Kilogram/hour/square foot
A derived mass flux density unit measuring kilograms of mass passing through one square foot of area per hour.
Pound/second/square foot
An imperial mass flux density unit representing pounds of mass crossing one square foot area each second.
Mass flux density
The rate of mass flow per unit area, expressing how much mass passes through a surface over time.
