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 Milligrams per second
The milligram per second (mg/s) equals 10⁻⁶ kg/s, common in pharmaceutical tablet coating lines and laboratory syringe pump calibrations. A modern inkjet printhead deposits ink at roughly 1-10 mg/s per nozzle row during high-speed printing; medical infusion pumps are calibrated to this scale for drug-delivery accuracy. 1 mg/s = 10⁻⁶ kg/s = 60 mg/min.
