Mass Flow Rate

kg/mintot/hr

Convert kilograms per minute (kg/min) to metric tonnes per hour (t/hr).

Factor1 kg/min = 0.06 t/hr

Converter

kg/min

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

Result
6t/hr

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
t/hr = kg/min × 0.06

Multiply any value in kilograms per minute by 0.06 to obtain the value in metric tonnes per hour.

Worked example

Convert 100 kg/min to t/hr.

  1. 01Start with 100 kg/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 100 × 0.06 = 6 t/hr.
Result100 kg/min = 6 t/hr

FAQ

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