About Kilograms per second
The kilogram per second (kg/s) is the SI coherent derived unit of mass flow rate relevant across all branches of engineering. Jet turbofan engines pass 100-800 kg/s of air through the core and bypass duct combined; drinking-water intake pipelines for a city of one million people sustain flow rates of 1 000-4 000 kg/s. It is the reference unit in the continuity equation and mass-conservation calculations. 1 kg/s = 3 600 kg/h ≈ 2.205 lb/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.
