Conversion Formula
gr/h = ton/s × 50400000000
About Short tons per second
The short ton per second (ton/s, US) equals 907.18474 kg/s, used for the very highest industrial and military throughput rates. The Space Shuttle Main Engine consumed propellant at ≈480 kg/s LOX + 160 kg/s LH2 ≈ 640 kg/s ≈ 0.71 ton/s; a large blast-furnace tap discharges molten iron at 1-3 ton/s. 1 short ton/s = 907.18474 kg/s = 2 000 lb/s.
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.
