What Is This Tool?

This unit converter facilitates converting absorbed radiation dose rates from hectogray per second (hGy/s) to kilogray per second (kGy/s), helping users easily express and compare high radiation dose rates in various applications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the numeric value in hectogray per second you want to convert.
  • Select hectogray/second as the source unit and kilogray/second as the target unit.
  • Execute the conversion to obtain the equivalent dose rate in kGy/s.

Key Features

  • Converts absorbed dose rates from hGy/s to kGy/s with a clear conversion factor.
  • Supports unit conversions used in radiation processing and safety assessments.
  • Browser-based, user-friendly interface for quick and easy calculations.

Examples

  • 5 hGy/s converts to 0.5 kGy/s
  • 12 hGy/s converts to 1.2 kGy/s

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying very high dose rates in industrial radiation processes like sterilization and polymer crosslinking.
  • Describing instantaneous or peak dose rates in accelerator beam experiments and pulsed irradiation.
