Formula
Formula
lb/day = klb/hr × 24000
Multiply any value in kilopounds per hour by 24000 to obtain the value in pounds per day.
Worked example
Convert 1 klb/hr to lb/day.
- 01Start with 1 klb/hr.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 24000 = 24000 lb/day.
Result1 klb/hr = 24000 lb/day

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from klb/hr to lb/day?
1 klb/hr equals 24000 lb/day. To convert, multiply the value in kilopounds per hour by 24000.
How do I convert 1 klb/hr to lb/day?
1 klb/hr = 24000 lb/day. For any value, multiply by 24000.
How do I convert lb/day back to klb/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 4.166667e-5. So 1 lb/day = 4.16667e-5 klb/hr.
When would I need to convert kilopound per hour to pound per day?
Mass flow conversions between klb/hr and lb/day 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).
