tonne per hour to pound per second
Convert tonne per hour (t/h) to pound per second (lb/s). Use an editable mass flow rate converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 t/h = 0.6123951727 lb/s
Conversion formula
One tonne per hour equals 0.6123951727 pound per second. Multiply your value in tonne per hour by this factor to get pound per second. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 tonne per hour:5 × 0.6123951727 = 3.061975864 lb/s

About these measurements
Mass flow rate measures mass passing a point per unit time.
The base reference used here is the kilogram per second. One tonne per hour is 0.2777777778 base units; one pound per second is 0.45359237 base units.
Important distinctions
Compound units must match the quantity and dimension. Temperature intervals use size factors rather than temperature offsets. Calorie and BTU entries use the explicit definitions shown.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert t/h to lb/s?
Multiply the quantity in t/h by 0.6123951727. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the pound per second to tonne per hour converter.
