FAQ

What is the conversion factor from kg/day to klb/min?
1 kg/day equals 1.530988e-6 klb/min. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms per day by 1.530988e-6.
How do I convert 1 kg/day to klb/min?
1 kg/day = 1.53099e-6 klb/min. For any value, multiply by 1.530988e-6.
How do I convert klb/min back to kg/day?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 653173. So 1 klb/min = 653173 kg/day.
When would I need to convert kilogram per day to kilopound per minute?
Mass flow conversions between kg/day and klb/min 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).
