Formula
Formula
lb/day = g/hr × 0.05291094
Multiply any value in grams per hour by 0.05291094 to obtain the value in pounds per day.
Worked example
Convert 1000 g/hr to lb/day.
- 01Start with 1000 g/hr.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.05291094 = 52.9109 lb/day.
Result1000 g/hr = 52.9109 lb/day

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from g/hr to lb/day?
1 g/hr equals 0.05291094 lb/day. To convert, multiply the value in grams per hour by 0.05291094.
How do I convert 1 g/hr to lb/day?
1 g/hr = 0.0529109 lb/day. For any value, multiply by 0.05291094.
How do I convert lb/day back to g/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 18.89968. So 1 lb/day = 18.8997 g/hr.
When would I need to convert gram per hour to pound per day?
Mass flow conversions between g/hr and lb/day are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
