About Gram per second (g/s)

A metric mass-flow unit used for small-scale processes: laboratory experiments, fuel-injector output, automotive engine airflow meters (e.g., MAF sensor typical reading 10–150 g/s depending on throttle), and medical gas delivery. Engine-management data logs, dyno testing, and powertrain calibration files almost always use g/s for airflow.

About Pound per second (lb/s)

An imperial mass-flow unit used in US aerospace engineering, combustion analysis, and some heavy-industry process engineering. Turbojet engine specification sheets and US-edition combustion textbooks commonly use lb/s for air and fuel flow. 1 lb/s ≈ 0.454 kg/s.
