About Pounds per hour
The pound per hour (lb/h) equals 0.45359237/3600 ≈ 1.260×10⁻⁴ kg/s, the dominant unit in US process engineering and steam-boiler rating. Packaged steam boilers are rated in lb/h of steam output (typical range 100-2 000 lb/h); HVAC cooling-coil latent loads are calculated in lb/h of moisture; flue-gas emission inventories are reported in lb/h per stack. 1 lb/h ≈ 1.260×10⁻⁴ kg/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.
