FAQ

What is the conversion factor from lt/hr to kg/s?
1 lt/hr equals 0.2822353 kg/s. To convert, multiply the value in long tons per hour by 0.2822353.
How do I convert 1 lt/hr to kg/s?
1 lt/hr = 0.282235 kg/s. For any value, multiply by 0.2822353.
How do I convert kg/s back to lt/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 3.543143. So 1 kg/s = 3.54314 lt/hr.
When would I need to convert long ton per hour to kilogram per second?
Mass flow conversions between lt/hr and kg/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).
