Convert Square feet per second to Square metres per hour
Convert Square feet per second (ft²/s) to Square metres per hour (m²/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
m²/h = ft²/s × 334.450944
About Square feet per second
The square foot per second (ft²/s) equals 0.09290304 m²/s, the imperial base unit for thermal diffusivity analogous to m²/s. It is used in US aerospace engineering and combustion research for highly conductive materials and high-temperature plasmas. Diamond, the most thermally diffusive solid at ≈7 cm²/s, converts to ≈0.0075 ft²/s; silver to ≈0.00167 ft²/s. 1 ft²/s = 3600 ft²/h = 0.09290304 m²/s.
About Square metres per hour
The square metre per hour (m²/h) equals 1/3600 m²/s ≈2.778 × 10⁻⁴ m²/s, used in large-scale geotechnical and civil engineering analyses. Soil consolidation models and groundwater thermal plume simulations often use m²/h because the full diffusion process unfolds over hours to days. 1 m²/h = 10 000 cm²/h ≈ 2.778 × 10⁻⁴ m²/s.
