Convert Gradians per second squared to Degrees per hour per second
Convert Gradians per second squared (gon/s²) to Degrees per hour per second (°/h/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
°/h/s = gon/s² × 3240
About Gradians per second squared
The gradian per second squared (gon/s²) equals π/200 ≈ 0.015708 rad/s². The gradian (1 gon = 0.9°) is the standard angular unit in continental European surveying; robotic total stations (Leica TS16, Trimble S-Series) that report angular speed in gon/s naturally characterise servo acceleration in gon/s². DIN 18709 survey instrument calibration records angular acceleration in the gradian system. 1 gon/s² = π/200 rad/s² ≈ 0.9 °/s².
About Degrees per hour per second
The degree per hour per second (°/h/s) equals π/648000 ≈ 4.848 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s², numerically identical to 1 °/min². Gyroscope bias ramp rate - the rate at which drift error accelerates - is specified in °/h/s per IEEE 952-1997; strategic-grade fibre-optic inertial navigation units achieve values below 0.001 °/h/s. 1 °/h/s = π/648000 rad/s² ≈ 4.848 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s².
