Full API documentation

Explanation

Formula: Pounds per Hour = Grams per Minute × 0.132277. Why: this is a cross-system mass-flow-rate conversion. The calculator normalizes the value through kilograms per second, then applies the exact target-unit constant for consistent process and engineering use.

Grams per minute (g/min): a small mass-flow-rate unit used for dosing, laboratory work, and low-rate feeder or process applications.

Pounds per hour (lb/h): a US customary mass-flow-rate unit common in equipment ratings, process specifications, and hourly throughput reporting.

This route is useful when translating mass flow rate values across SI and US customary conventions so process specs, feeder settings, and throughput calculations stay comparable.

This conversion is purely multiplicative because both units reduce through kilograms per second using fixed mass and time definitions with no offset.

Method & Reference
