Formula

Formula
g/s = kg/min × 16.66667

Multiply any value in kilograms per minute by 16.66667 to obtain the value in grams per second.

Worked example

Convert 1 kg/min to g/s.

  1. 01Start with 1 kg/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 16.66667 = 16.6667 g/s.
Result1 kg/min = 16.6667 g/s

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from kg/min to g/s?
1 kg/min equals 16.66667 g/s. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms per minute by 16.66667.
How do I convert 1 kg/min to g/s?
1 kg/min = 16.6667 g/s. For any value, multiply by 16.66667.
How do I convert g/s back to kg/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.06. So 1 g/s = 0.06 kg/min.
When would I need to convert kilogram per minute to gram per second?
Mass flow conversions between kg/min and g/s 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).
