Frequently Asked Questions

What does kilogram/hour/square meter measure?
It measures mass flux density, indicating how many kilograms of material pass through or accumulate on one square meter in one hour.

Why convert to pound/hour/square foot?
This is useful to match customary units commonly used in certain industries or regions, especially where imperial units are standard.

Can this converter be used for any mass transfer rate?
It is specifically designed for mass flux density expressed per unit area per unit time, not for general mass transfer rates without area or time components.

Key Terminology

Kilogram/hour/square meter
A unit measuring the mass of material transported or deposited per square meter of surface area in one hour.
Pound/hour/square foot
A unit measuring the mass flow in pounds across one square foot of area during one hour.
Mass flux density
The amount of mass passing through a unit area per unit time, used to describe surface mass transfer rates.
