Square metres per hour (m²/h)

Conversion Formula

m²/h = in²/s × 2.322576

About Square inches per second

The square inch per second (in²/s) equals 6.4516 × 10⁻⁴ m²/s, used in high-speed thermal analyses such as ballistic impact heating, explosive detonation studies, and rapid induction heating of steel billets. Values for high-conductivity copper alloys reach ≈1-2 in²/s; for mild steel ≈0.3 in²/s. 1 in²/s = 0.00064516 m²/s = 3600 in²/h.

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.
