FAQ
What is the conversion factor from t/hr to lb/day?
1 t/hr equals 52910.94 lb/day. To convert, multiply the value in metric tonnes per hour by 52910.94.
How do I convert 1 t/hr to lb/day?
1 t/hr = 52910.9 lb/day. For any value, multiply by 52910.94.
How do I convert lb/day back to t/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1.889968e-5. So 1 lb/day = 1.88997e-5 t/hr.
When would I need to convert metric tonne per hour to pound per day?
Mass flow conversions between t/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).
