Conversion Formula
gr/h = ton/d × 583333.3333
About Short tons per day
The short ton per day (ton/d, US) equals 907.18474/86400 ≈ 0.010499 kg/s, the capacity unit for mid-size mining operations, smelters, and US water-treatment chemical dosing. A small gold mine may process 500-1 000 short ton/d of ore; activated-sludge wastewater plants dose chemicals in short ton/d. 1 short ton/d ≈ 0.010499 kg/s ≈ 2 000 lb/d.
About Grains per hour
The grain per hour (gr/h) equals 6.479891×10⁻⁵/3600 ≈ 1.800×10⁻⁸ kg/s, used in HVAC psychrometric calculations for dehumidifier capacity and moisture-removal rates. ASHRAE load calculation spreadsheets report latent loads in grains of water per hour; a typical residential dehumidifier removes 5×10⁵-2×10⁶ gr/h. 1 gr/h ≈ 1.800×10⁻⁸ kg/s.
