Convert grams per second (g/s) to kilograms per hour (kg/hr).

Factor1 g/s = 3.6 kg/hr

Converter

g/s

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
3600kg/hr

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
kg/hr = g/s × 3.6

Multiply any value in grams per second by 3.6 to obtain the value in kilograms per hour.

Worked example

Convert 1000 g/s to kg/hr.

  1. 01Start with 1000 g/s.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 3.6 = 3600 kg/hr.
Result1000 g/s = 3600 kg/hr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from g/s to kg/hr?
1 g/s equals 3.6 kg/hr. To convert, multiply the value in grams per second by 3.6.
How do I convert 1 g/s to kg/hr?
1 g/s = 3.6 kg/hr. For any value, multiply by 3.6.
How do I convert kg/hr back to g/s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.2777778. So 1 kg/hr = 0.277778 g/s.
When would I need to convert gram per second to kilogram per hour?
Mass flow conversions between g/s and kg/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).
