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 Grams per second
The gram per second (g/s) equals 10⁻³ kg/s, a practical laboratory and light-industrial unit. Water flowing from a standard kitchen tap runs at roughly 60-80 g/s; a 3D printer extruder deposits filament at 0.5-2 g/s; an automated pill-dispensing machine doses powders at 1-10 g/s. It is also the preferred unit for small engine fuel-consumption test benches. 1 g/s = 10⁻³ kg/s = 3.6 kg/h.
