What Is This Tool?

This converter enables you to translate angular velocity values from radians per minute (rad/min) to revolutions per second (r/s), facilitating comparisons between different rotational speed units used in engineering and scientific applications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the angular velocity value in radian/minute.
  • Select 'radian/minute [rad/min]' as the original unit and 'revolution/second [r/s]' as the target unit.
  • Click convert to get the equivalent angular velocity in revolutions per second.
  • Use the provided examples as guidance to verify your results.

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity from radian/minute to revolution/second units.
  • Supports use in motor control, dynamics simulations, and instrumentation.
  • Includes practical conversion examples for easy understanding.
  • Browser-based tool requiring no installation or special software.
  • Helps transition from slower rotational speed units to higher-resolution metrics.

Examples

  • Convert 10 rad/min: 10 × 0.0026525824 = 0.026525824 r/s
  • Convert 100 rad/min: 100 × 0.0026525824 = 0.26525824 r/s

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying angular velocity of motors and servomotors in automation and control systems.
  • Describing rotational speeds in dynamics and rigid-body simulations.
  • Reporting low-speed rotations in laboratory and instrumentation settings.
  • Measuring shaft speeds of electric motors and rotating machinery with per-second resolution.
  • Evaluating spin rates of devices like optical discs or turbomachinery during tests.
  • Reporting rotation frequency in scientific research such as pulsar spin measurements.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure consistent use of time units (minute vs. second) when performing conversions.
  • Carefully apply the conversion factor to avoid rounding errors in critical calculations.
  • Use this conversion primarily for low to moderate speed measurements where radian/minute is typical.
  • For high-speed angular velocities, consider using radians per second for better precision.
  • Validate conversion results against known examples to confirm accuracy.

Limitations

  • The conversion accuracy relies on exact π approximations and consistent time measurements.
  • Less ideal for very high angular speeds where radians per second are preferred.
  • Non-integer conversion factors require careful calculation to prevent rounding errors.
  • May not be suitable for applications demanding extremely high numerical precision.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert from radian/minute to revolution/second?
Converting allows comparison between SI angular velocity units expressed per minute and rotational speeds measured as full revolutions per second, useful for equipment monitoring and scientific analysis.

What is the conversion factor between rad/min and r/s?
The exact conversion rate is 1 radian/minute equals approximately 0.0026525824 revolution/second.

When should I prefer radians per second over this conversion?
For high-speed rotations or applications requiring greater precision, radians per second are more appropriate due to their direct measurement per second and simpler relationship with frequency.

Key Terminology

Radian per minute [rad/min]
An SI-derived angular velocity unit measuring the angle in radians swept in one minute, used mainly for low-speed measurements and control applications.
Revolution per second [r/s]
An angular speed unit denoting complete rotations per second, directly related to rotational frequency and commonly used in dynamic measurements.
Angular velocity
The rate of change of angular position of a rotating object, typically expressed in radians or revolutions per unit time.
