Mass Flow Rate

kg/stokg/min

Convert kilograms per second (kg/s) to kilograms per minute (kg/min).

Factor1 kg/s = 60 kg/min

Converter

kg/s

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

Result
60kg/min

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
kg/min = kg/s × 60

Multiply any value in kilograms per second by 60 to obtain the value in kilograms per minute.

Worked example

Convert 1 kg/s to kg/min.

  1. 01Start with 1 kg/s.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 60 = 60 kg/min.
Result1 kg/s = 60 kg/min

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from kg/s to kg/min?
1 kg/s equals 60 kg/min. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms per second by 60.
How do I convert 1 kg/s to kg/min?
1 kg/s = 60 kg/min. For any value, multiply by 60.
How do I convert kg/min back to kg/s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.01666667. So 1 kg/min = 0.0166667 kg/s.
When would I need to convert kilogram per second to kilogram per minute?
Mass flow conversions between kg/s and kg/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).
