What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to transform values of angular velocity from revolution/hour (r/h) to revolution/second (r/s), facilitating precise unit changes for different time scales of rotational speed measurement.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in revolution/hour (r/h) that you wish to convert.
  • Select the target unit as revolution/second (r/s).
  • Click the convert button to get the equivalent speed in revolution/second.
  • Review the output and use the result for your specific application.

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity units from revolution/hour to revolution/second accurately.
  • Provides clear, easy-to-understand examples to illustrate conversions.
  • Supports use cases across engineering, scientific research, and industrial monitoring.
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface for quick conversions.
  • Helps express slow to fast rotational speeds in a suitable time unit.

Examples

  • Convert 10 revolution/hour to revolution/second: 10 × 0.0002777778 = 0.002777778 r/s.
  • Convert 3600 revolution/hour to revolution/second: 3600 × 0.0002777778 = 1 r/s.

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying slow rotational rates for large devices like solar trackers or antenna mounts.
  • Monitoring slow industrial equipment such as rotary kilns or large mixers using hourly revolution counts.
  • Expressing slow planetary or satellite rotation rates in astronomy and geoscience.
  • Measuring shaft speeds of electric motors and small machinery with per-second resolution.
  • Recording spin rates of devices like optical discs and flywheels in testing environments.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Double-check unit selections before conversion to ensure accuracy.
  • Use this conversion for refining slow angular velocities to a more granular second-scale.
  • Apply results carefully when dealing with very small revolution/second values requiring precise instruments.
  • Understand the context of your application to choose appropriate units.
  • Combine this conversion with proper measurement tools for reliable rotating machinery monitoring.

Limitations

  • Resulting values for very low rotational speeds may be extremely small and need high precision measurement tools.
  • Care should be taken interpreting converted values at very low frequencies due to measurement resolution restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does revolution/hour [r/h] measure?
Revolution/hour measures angular velocity as the number of full rotations completed in one hour, used for slow rotational rates.

Why convert revolution/hour to revolution/second?
Converting to revolution/second allows expressing angular velocity on a finer time scale, useful for faster rotations or precise control.

Can this conversion be used in mechanical engineering?
Yes, it is commonly applied in fields like motor control, robotics, and mechanical testing of rotating parts.

Key Terminology

revolution/hour [r/h]
A measure of angular velocity indicating the number of complete rotations made in one hour.
revolution/second [r/s]
A unit of angular speed equal to one complete rotation about an axis every second.
angular velocity
The rate at which an object rotates or spins around an axis.
