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 minute
The metric tonne per minute (t/min) equals 1 000/60 ≈ 16.667 kg/s, used for large-scale mining conveyor capacity, bulk-carrier loading terminals, and industrial furnace melt rates. A Cape-size bulk carrier loads iron ore at 3 000-5 000 t/h = 50-83 t/min; a large electric arc furnace taps ≈100-200 t of steel per heat over roughly 60-90 min. 1 t/min = 1 000/60 kg/s ≈ 1.102 short ton/min.
