Conversion Formula

kGy/h = kGy/s × 3600

About Kilograys per second

The kilogray per second (kGy/s) equals 1e3 Gy/s. Encountered in FLASH radiotherapy research at ultra-high dose rates and in high-power industrial electron accelerators for polymer crosslinking and cable curing at pulse-peak intensities; free-electron laser (FEL) and wakefield accelerator beam-loss dosimetry reports cite kGy/s. 1 kGy/s = 1e3 Gy/s = 3.6 MGy/h.

About Kilograys per hour

The kilogray per hour (kGy/h) equals 1e3 Gy/h ≈ 0.278 Gy/s. Industrial radiation processing standard: food irradiation conveyors using ⁶⁰Co or electron beam deliver 1-20 kGy/h; medical device sterilisation tunnels are calibrated in kGy/h; IAEA guidelines for industrial irradiation facilities specify throughput in kGy/h. 1 kGy/h = 1e3 Gy/h.
