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).

About Grams per square metre per second

The gram per square metre per second (g/(m²·s)) equals 10⁻³ kg/(m²·s). It is used in combustion engineering for solid-propellant burn rate and ablation rate data, and in food-process engineering for spray drying and freeze-drying mass-transfer calculations. 1 g/(m²·s) = 3 600 g/(m²·h).
