Convert Milligrams per hour to Grams per minute
Convert Milligrams per hour (mg/h) to Grams per minute (g/min) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
g/min = mg/h × 1.666666667e-5
About Milligrams per hour
The milligram per hour (mg/h) equals 10⁻⁶/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁰ kg/s, adopted in transdermal drug-patch pharmacokinetics to express dermal absorption rate. A nicotine patch typically releases 14-21 mg over 24 h, corresponding to ≈0.58-0.88 mg/h. Environmental emission tests for laboratory fume hoods also express contaminant escape in mg/h. 1 mg/h = 1/3600 mg/s.
About Grams per minute
The gram per minute (g/min) equals 10⁻³/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁵ kg/s, common in food processing (condiment dispensing, coffee brewing), and laboratory flow chemistry. A standard espresso machine draws water at ≈30 g/min through the portafilter; a micro-reactor feed pump for organic synthesis is calibrated in g/min. 1 g/min = 1/60 g/s ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁵ kg/s.
