About Pounds per second

The pound per second (lb/s) equals 0.45359237 kg/s, widely used in aerospace and large industrial equipment. A Saturn V first-stage engine consumed ≈13 short tons of propellant per second, equal to ≈26 000 lb/s; a typical large centrifugal pump handling water moves ≈500-2000 lb/s at operating flow. 1 lb/s = 0.45359237 kg/s ≈ 3 600 lb/h.

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.
