Convert Square millimetres per minute to Square feet per hour
Convert Square millimetres per minute (mm²/min) to Square feet per hour (ft²/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
ft²/h = mm²/min × 0.000645834625
About Square millimetres per minute
The square millimetre per minute (mm²/min) equals 1/60 000 000 m²/s. It appears in material testing standards where thermal diffusivity of polymers and composites is measured over minute-scale heating pulses. ASTM and ISO laser-flash methods sometimes report in mm²/min as an intermediate step. 1 mm²/min = 1e-6/60 m²/s ≈ 1.667 × 10⁻¸ m²/s.
About Square feet per hour
The square foot per hour (ft²/h) equals ≈2.581 × 10⁻⁵ m²/s and is the dominant unit in US engineering practice for thermal diffusivity of building materials and industrial insulation. ASHRAE handbooks, Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook, and NFPA fire-resistance tables all list diffusivity in ft²/h. Steel: ≈0.4-0.5 ft²/h; concrete: ≈0.023 ft²/h; mineral wool: ≈0.005 ft²/h. 1 ft²/h = 0.09290304/3600 m²/s.
