What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to transform angular velocity measurements from degree per minute (°/min) to revolution per hour (r/h). It is designed to handle conversions for slower rotational rates commonly found in astronomy, industrial monitoring, and instrumentation.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in degree per minute (°/min) you wish to convert
  • Select degree/minute as the source unit and revolution/hour as the target unit
  • Initiate the conversion to receive the equivalent angular velocity in revolution per hour (r/h)

Key Features

  • Simple conversion between degree/minute and revolution/hour angular velocity units
  • Supports applications in astronomy, industrial processes, and geoscience
  • Browser-based and easy to use without needing additional software

Examples

  • Convert 3 degree/minute (°/min) to revolution/hour: 3 × 0.1666666667 = 0.5 r/h
  • Convert 6 degree/minute (°/min) to revolution/hour: 6 × 0.1666666667 = 1 r/h

Common Use Cases

  • Tracking and slew rate control for astronomical telescopes
  • Monitoring pan and tilt speeds for surveillance or time-lapse cameras requiring precise slow motion
  • Measuring rotation rates of radar or antenna assemblies and slow gimbal movements
  • Specifying slow rotation speeds in large industrial equipment like rotary kilns or mixers
  • Expressing slow planetary or satellite rotation rates in geoscience and astronomy

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use degree/minute for applications involving slow, precise angular displacements over short time spans
  • Choose revolution/hour to represent rotational speeds involving full revolutions over longer time periods
  • Be aware of the fixed relationship that 360 degrees equal one full revolution when converting
  • For very fast rotations, consider units with smaller time intervals or radians per second instead

Limitations

  • Degree/minute is less suitable for very high-speed rotations requiring finer time resolution
  • Revolution/hour is optimized for slow rotation rates, not rapid rotations
  • The conversion depends on the standard definition of one revolution as 360 degrees; it does not cover non-standard rotational units

Frequently Asked Questions

What is degree per minute (°/min)?
Degree per minute represents the angular velocity corresponding to one degree of rotation per minute, typically used for slow rotational rates.

When should I use revolution per hour (r/h)?
Revolution per hour is useful to express slow rotation speeds where counting the number of complete rotations within an hour is practical.

Can this converter be used for high-speed rotations?
This converter is best suited for slow rotational rates; high-speed applications usually require units with smaller time intervals or radians per second.

Key Terminology

Degree per minute (°/min)
A measure of angular velocity representing one degree of rotation per minute, often used for slow rotational rates.
Revolution per hour (r/h)
A unit that quantifies how many complete 360° rotations occur each hour, used for slower rotational speeds.
