About Pounds per minute
The pound per minute (lb/min) equals 0.45359237/60 ≈ 7.560×10⁻³ kg/s, the standard unit for US fire-suppression system design (sprinkler flow demand) and HVAC hydronic loop balancing. A fire-sprinkler head at 15 psi discharges roughly 30-40 lb/min of water; industrial humidifiers are rated in lb/min of steam. 1 lb/min ≈ 7.560×10⁻³ kg/s = 60 lb/h.
About Ounces per day
The ounce per day (oz/d) equals 0.028349523125/86400 ≈ 3.281×10⁻⁷ kg/s, used in US clinical nutrition (tube-feeding rates, oral-supplement intake) and very-low flow industrial metering. A patient receiving 6 oz of enteral formula per hour (via a drip-tube) receives ≈144 oz/d. 1 oz/d ≈ 3.281×10⁻⁷ kg/s.
