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.
About Long tons per minute
The long ton per minute (long ton/min) equals 1 016.0469088/60 ≈ 16.934 kg/s, historically used in British blast-furnace output measurements, port handling-rate calculations, and Royal Navy fuel-consumption specifications. A large grain terminal loading a Panamax vessel may achieve 4 000 long ton/h = ≈67 long ton/min. 1 long ton/min ≈ 16.934 kg/s.
