About Metric ton per hour (t/hr)
A metric mass-flow unit equal to 1,000 kg/hr ≈ 0.27778 kg/s. t/hr is the universal working unit for bulk-industrial mass-flow rates where kg/hr would produce awkwardly-large numbers. Reference applications: mining and quarrying conveyors per ISO 5048 and CEMA standards (a typical aggregate-belt conveyor 100-500 t/hr; a large iron-ore overland conveyor 5,000-10,000 t/hr), cement-kiln feed rates per CRH / Lafarge plant ratings (50-400 t/hr typical, world-record kilns 12,000 t/day = 500 t/hr), grain-handling and bulk-shiploading conveyors (a Panamax-class shiploader 2,000-3,000 t/hr), steel-mill billet and slab flow (modern continuous-caster 300-500 t/hr), wastewater-treatment-plant influent flow (large municipal WWTP 50-200 t/hr), and power-plant coal-feed systems (a 600 MW coal-fired unit ~200 t/hr at full load). Convert t/hr to kg/s by dividing by 3.6; to lb/hr by multiplying by 2,205.
About Gram per second (g/s)
A metric mass-flow unit equal to exactly 10⁻³ kg/s. g/s is the working unit for small-scale and instrumentation-grade mass-flow measurement applications: automotive Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor output (typical idle 2-4 g/s, cruise 10-30 g/s, wide-open-throttle on a 3.5 L V6 ~100-180 g/s), engine-management data-logging (HP Tuners, EFILive, Cobb AccessPort, OpenECU all report MAF in g/s for North American vehicles), automotive dyno-tuning and powertrain calibration software, OBD-II Mode 01 PID 0x10 (MAF rate) which is defined as g/s per SAE J1979 and ISO 15031-5, laboratory fuel-injector flow-bench measurement using SAE J1832 procedures, medical respiratory-gas delivery (HFNC high-flow nasal cannula 60-120 g/s of warmed/humidified air-O₂ mix per AARC Clinical Practice Guidelines), small-scale chemical-process dosing (Bronkhorst / Sensirion / Honeywell mass-flow controllers commonly used in semiconductor fabs and pharmaceutical manufacturing), and analytical-instrument carrier-gas flows. Convert g/s to kg/s by dividing by 1,000; to lb/min by multiplying by 0.1323; to kg/hr by multiplying by 3.6.
