Formula
Formula
lt/hr = g/min × 5.905239e-5
Multiply any value in grams per minute by 5.905239e-5 to obtain the value in long tons per hour.
Worked example
Convert 10000 g/min to lt/hr.
- 01Start with 10000 g/min.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10000 × 5.905239e-5 = 0.590524 lt/hr.
Result10000 g/min = 0.590524 lt/hr

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from g/min to lt/hr?
1 g/min equals 5.905239e-5 lt/hr. To convert, multiply the value in grams per minute by 5.905239e-5.
How do I convert 1 g/min to lt/hr?
1 g/min = 5.90524e-5 lt/hr. For any value, multiply by 5.905239e-5.
How do I convert lt/hr back to g/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 16934.12. So 1 lt/hr = 16934.1 g/min.
When would I need to convert gram per minute to long ton per hour?
Mass flow conversions between g/min and lt/hr 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).
