Convert Milligrams per square metre per second to Pounds per square foot per second
Convert Milligrams per square metre per second (mg/(m²·s)) to Pounds per square foot per second (lb/(ft²·s)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
lb/(ft²·s) = mg/(m²·s) × 2.048161436e-7
About Milligrams per square metre per second
The milligram per square metre per second (mg/(m²·s)) equals 10⁻⁶ kg/(m²·s). It is used in aerosol science and atmospheric deposition studies for measuring dry deposition fluxes of particulate matter. Typical urban PM2.5 dry deposition velocities produce fluxes of 0.01-1 mg/(m²·s). 1 mg/(m²·s) = 3 600 mg/(m²·h).
About Pounds per square foot per second
The pound per square foot per second (lb/(ft²·s)) equals 0.45359237/0.09290304 ≈ 4.882 kg/(m²·s). It is the coherent FPS mass flux unit, used in US aerospace for rocket motor mass flux, ballistic studies, and hypervelocity heat-shield ablation rate specifications. 1 lb/(ft²·s) ≈ 4.882 kg/(m²·s).
