Mass Flux Density Converter

Mass flux density is how much mass crosses a unit of area per unit of time. It is the working unit for heat exchangers, drying, filtration, and membrane processes. The SI form is the kilogram per second per square meter; US process data uses pounds per hour per square foot.

7 units supported Base unit kilogram per second m² (kg/(s·m²))

1 kg/(s·m²)
3,600 kg/(h·m²)

Multiply the number of kilograms per second m² by 3600 to get kilograms per hour m². How this is calculated
