About Short tons per hour
The short ton per hour (ton/h, US) equals 907.18474/3600 ≈ 0.25199 kg/s, the standard capacity unit for US aggregate crushers, coal-fired power plants, and pellet mills. ASHRAE steam-boiler size references, cement plant kiln output, and mine-hoist capacity are all quoted in short ton/h. A large gyratory crusher processes 1 000-3 000 short ton/h. 1 short ton/h ≈ 0.25199 kg/s ≈ 0.9072 t/h.
About Metric tons per hour
The metric tonne per hour (t/h) equals 1 000/3600 ≈ 0.27778 kg/s, the dominant capacity unit in European and international process engineering. Equipment datasheets for conveyor belts, crushers, mills, dryers, compactors, and cyclone separators specify throughput in t/h. A 500 MW coal plant consumes ≈70-90 t/h of pulverised coal; a large rotary cement kiln produces ≈200-300 t/h of clinker. 1 t/h = 1 000/3600 kg/s ≈ 1.102 short ton/h.
