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.
About Short tons per hour
The short ton per hour (ton/h, US) equals 907.18474/3600 ≈ 0.25199 kg/s, the standard capacity unit for US aggregate crushers, coal-fired power plants, and pellet mills. ASHRAE steam-boiler size references, cement plant kiln output, and mine-hoist capacity are all quoted in short ton/h. A large gyratory crusher processes 1 000-3 000 short ton/h. 1 short ton/h ≈ 0.25199 kg/s ≈ 0.9072 t/h.
