Formula
Formula
g/s = mg/hr × 2.777778e-7
Multiply any value in milligrams per hour by 2.777778e-7 to obtain the value in grams per second.
Worked example
Convert 1.00000e+6 mg/hr to g/s.
- 01Start with 1.00000e+6 mg/hr.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1.00000e+6 × 2.777778e-7 = 0.277778 g/s.
Result1.00000e+6 mg/hr = 0.277778 g/s

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from mg/hr to g/s?
1 mg/hr equals 2.777778e-7 g/s. To convert, multiply the value in milligrams per hour by 2.777778e-7.
How do I convert 1 mg/hr to g/s?
1 mg/hr = 2.77778e-7 g/s. For any value, multiply by 2.777778e-7.
How do I convert g/s back to mg/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 3600000. So 1 g/s = 3.60000e+6 mg/hr.
When would I need to convert milligram per hour to gram per second?
Mass flow conversions between mg/hr 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).
