Formula

Formula
klb/min = t/hr × 0.03674371

Multiply any value in metric tonnes per hour by 0.03674371 to obtain the value in kilopounds per minute.

Worked example

Convert 100 t/hr to klb/min.

  1. 01Start with 100 t/hr.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 100 × 0.03674371 = 3.67437 klb/min.
Result100 t/hr = 3.67437 klb/min

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from t/hr to klb/min?
1 t/hr equals 0.03674371 klb/min. To convert, multiply the value in metric tonnes per hour by 0.03674371.
How do I convert 1 t/hr to klb/min?
1 t/hr = 0.0367437 klb/min. For any value, multiply by 0.03674371.
How do I convert klb/min back to t/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 27.21554. So 1 klb/min = 27.2155 t/hr.
When would I need to convert metric tonne per hour to kilopound per minute?
Mass flow conversions between t/hr and klb/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).
