About Long hundredweights per hour
The long hundredweight per hour (cwt/h, UK) equals 50.80234544/3600 ≈ 0.014112 kg/s. The long hundredweight (112 lb = 8 stone) was the standard commercial weight in British wholesale trade. It survives in historic UK cement and bulk-aggregate pricing sheets and in some British agricultural markets. 1 long cwt/h ≈ 0.014112 kg/s = 112 lb/h.
About Metric tons per hour
The metric tonne per hour (t/h) equals 1 000/3600 ≈ 0.27778 kg/s, the dominant capacity unit in European and international process engineering. Equipment datasheets for conveyor belts, crushers, mills, dryers, compactors, and cyclone separators specify throughput in t/h. A 500 MW coal plant consumes ≈70-90 t/h of pulverised coal; a large rotary cement kiln produces ≈200-300 t/h of clinker. 1 t/h = 1 000/3600 kg/s ≈ 1.102 short ton/h.
