Conversion Formula
t/s = oz/min × 4.724920521e-7
About Ounces per minute
The ounce per minute (oz/min) equals 0.028349523125/60 ≈ 4.725×10⁻⁴ kg/s, used in US beverage dispensing (draft beer taps, fountain-drink machines) and food-service portion control. A properly set draft beer faucet pours at ≈16-20 oz/min; a commercial coffee brewer delivers ≈12-16 oz/min of brew. 1 oz/min ≈ 4.725×10⁻⁴ kg/s = 1/16 lb/min.
About Metric tons per second
The metric tonne per second (t/s) equals 1 000 kg/s, the largest commonly cited mass-flow unit for catastrophic events and mega-scale engineering. The Chicxulub impactor released energy equivalent to removing ≈7×10¹¹ t of TNT over milliseconds; large submarine volcanic eruptions expel lava at 10³-10⁴ t/s. Industrial context: the Three Gorges Dam passes ≈45 000 m³/s of water = ≈45 000 t/s at peak flood. 1 t/s = 1 000 kg/s ≈ 1.102 short ton/s.
