About Short tons per minute
The short ton per minute (ton/min, US) equals 907.18474/60 ≈ 15.120 kg/s, typical for high-capacity conveyor belts and bucket-wheel excavators in open-cast mining. A large surface coal mine loads unit trains with overland conveyors rated at 5 000-15 000 short ton/h = 83-250 ton/min. 1 short ton/min ≈ 15.120 kg/s = 2 000 lb/min.
About Short hundredweights per hour
The short hundredweight per hour (cwt/h, US) equals 45.359237/3600 ≈ 0.012600 kg/s. The US short hundredweight (100 lb exactly) is used in grain elevator and feed-mill billing sheets, cotton-gin output metering, and livestock-feed blending operations. A small feed mill might process 100-500 short cwt/h of mixed grain. 1 short cwt/h ≈ 0.012600 kg/s = 100 lb/h.
