FAQ

What is the conversion factor from st/hr to kg/min?
1 st/hr equals 15.11975 kg/min. To convert, multiply the value in short tons per hour by 15.11975.
How do I convert 1 st/hr to kg/min?
1 st/hr = 15.1197 kg/min. For any value, multiply by 15.11975.
How do I convert kg/min back to st/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.06613868. So 1 kg/min = 0.0661387 st/hr.
When would I need to convert short ton per hour to kilogram per minute?
Mass flow conversions between st/hr 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).
