Convert Grams per minute to Long tons per second
Convert Grams per minute (g/min) to Long tons per second (long ton/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
long ton/s = g/min × 1.640344213e-8
About Grams per minute
The gram per minute (g/min) equals 10⁻³/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁵ kg/s, common in food processing (condiment dispensing, coffee brewing), and laboratory flow chemistry. A standard espresso machine draws water at ≈30 g/min through the portafilter; a micro-reactor feed pump for organic synthesis is calibrated in g/min. 1 g/min = 1/60 g/s ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁵ kg/s.
About Long tons per second
The long ton per second (long ton/s) equals 1 016.0469088 kg/s, based on the UK long ton of 2 240 lb used historically in British heavy industry and naval engineering. It quantifies extremely high discharge rates such as large dam break surges or catastrophic industrial spillages. 1 long ton/s = 1 016.0469088 kg/s ≈ 1.016 t/s ≈ 1.120 short ton/s.
