What Is This Tool?

This converter changes angular velocity values from revolutions per minute (r/min) to degrees per hour (°/h). It helps translate fast rotational speeds into angular displacements relevant over longer time frames, useful in various technical and scientific fields.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the angular speed value in revolutions per minute (r/min).
  • Select 'revolution/minute [r/min]' as the input unit and 'degree/hour [°/h]' as the output unit.
  • Click convert to view the equivalent value in degrees per hour (°/h).

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity between revolution/minute and degree/hour units.
  • Browser-based and easy to use with a simple interface.
  • Suitable for applications in automotive, industrial, and astronomical fields.
  • Displays clear and quick results with example calculations.

Examples

  • 2 r/min converts to 43200 °/h by multiplying 2 × 21600.
  • 0.5 r/min converts to 10800 °/h by multiplying 0.5 × 21600.

Common Use Cases

  • Diagnosing and tuning engine and drivetrain speeds in automotive applications.
  • Controlling rotational speeds of electric motors, fans, and pumps.
  • Monitoring laboratory centrifuge and machining spindle velocities.
  • Describing slow planetary rotation like Earth’s rotation rate.
  • Tracking telescope or antenna pointing errors and drift rates.
  • Quantifying spacecraft attitude drift or inertial navigation system rates.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use this conversion for relating rapid rotations to slower angular movements over time.
  • Apply degree per hour units primarily for slow angular velocities to maintain clarity.
  • Ensure instrument precision matches the unit scale to avoid misinterpretation.
  • Understand the large scaling factor involved when converting fast rotations to degrees per hour.

Limitations

  • Degree/hour units can produce large values that may be hard to interpret for fast rotations.
  • This unit is best suited for slow angular speeds; at high speeds, its intuitive meaning decreases.
  • Measurement instruments may limit precision for very slow or very fast rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert from revolution per minute to degree per hour?
Converting helps relate fast rotational speeds to slower angular displacements over extended periods, useful in astronomy and navigation.

Can I use degree/hour for fast rotations?
While possible, degree/hour is more practical for slow angular velocities as it may produce large, unwieldy numbers for fast rotations.

What is the exact conversion rate between r/min and °/h?
One revolution per minute equals 21600 degrees per hour.

Key Terminology

Revolution per minute (r/min)
A unit of rotational speed signifying one full turn per minute.
Degree per hour (°/h)
An angular velocity unit indicating the change in angle in degrees over one hour.
Angular velocity
The rate at which an object rotates or revolves around an axis.
