Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert from mm/h to mm/s?
Converting from millimeter per hour to millimeter per second allows users to work with finer time resolutions for precise engineering and monitoring applications.

What are typical applications using mm/h units?
Millimeter per hour units are commonly used for measuring precipitation intensity, material deposition rates, and slow structural movements.

Does the conversion assume constant speed?
Yes, this conversion assumes uniform speed over the time period, which may not be accurate for all natural or industrial scenarios.

Key Terminology

Millimeter per hour (mm/h)
A speed unit expressing a change of one millimeter occurring over one hour, used for very slow linear rates.
Millimeter per second (mm/s)
A derived metric speed unit indicating one millimeter moved in one second, applied in precision engineering and vibration analysis.
Conversion rate
The factor used to translate values from millimeter per hour to millimeter per second; specifically, 1 mm/h equals 0.0002777778 mm/s.
