Convert Rads per second to Nanograys per hour
Convert Rads per second (rad/s) to Nanograys per hour (nGy/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
nGy/h = rad/s × 36000000000
About Rads per second
The rad per second (rad/s) equals 0.01 Gy/s. Used in US radiation therapy physics and pulsed accelerator dosimetry: FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) research defines ultra-high dose rate as >40 Gy/s = 4000 rad/s; linac prompt radiation dose rates during pulsed operation are characterised in rad/s; nuclear detonation prompt gamma fields are described in rad/s. 1 rad/s = 0.01 Gy/s = 1 cGy/s.
About Nanograys per hour
The nanogray per hour (nGy/h) equals 1e-9 Gy/h ≈ 2.78×10⁻¹³ Gy/s. Natural background cosmic-ray dose rates at sea level are 30-50 nGy/h; at aviation cruising altitude they rise to 3000-6000 nGy/h. IAEA environmental surveillance networks and national monitoring stations report ambient gamma dose rates in nGy/h. 1 nGy/h = 1e-9 Gy/h.
