How Do I Convert kg/h of Steam to ton/h?

To convert a steam flow rate from kilograms per hour (كجم/ساعة) to metric tons per hour (ذ), divide the kg/h value by 1,000.

Steam flow (ذ) = Steam flow (كجم/ساعة) ÷ 1,000

على سبيل المثال:

5,000 kg/h ÷ 1,000 = 5 ذ

لذلك, a steam boiler producing 5,000 kg of steam per hour has a steam capacity of 5 metric tons per hour.

kg/h to ton/h Steam Conversion Table

The conversion is linear because 1 metric ton = 1,000 كجم. The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) also defines 1 metric ton (ر) مثل 1,000 kilograms.

How Do I Convert ton/h Back to kg/h?

For the reverse conversion, multiply metric tons per hour by 1,000:

Steam flow (كجم/ساعة) = Steam flow (ذ) × 1,000

مثال:

6 t/h × 1,000 = 6,000 كجم/ساعة

So a 6 t/h industrial steam boiler is rated to produce 6,000 kg/h of steam at its specified rated conditions.

Is 1 ton/h of Steam Always 1,000 كجم/ساعة?

Yes—if “ton” means a metric ton (tonne).

1 metric ton/hour = 1,000 kg/hour

لكن, the word “ton” can be ambiguous in international projects.

For industrial boiler specifications expressed as ذ, confirm that the supplier and buyer are both referring to metric tonnes per hour.

This is especially important for international RFQs, where “10 ton boiler” should not be used without clearly defining the unit.

Does Steam Pressure Change the kg/h to t/h Conversion?

لا.

If you are converting only the mass flow rate, steam pressure and temperature do not change the basic conversion:

1,000 kg/h = 1 ذ

Pressure and temperature do matter when calculating steam enthalpy, thermal power, استهلاك الوقود, pipe sizing and other engineering parameters, but they do not change the mass conversion between kg/h and metric t/h.

Is Boiler Capacity in t/h the Same as Steam Flow Rate?

ل المراجل البخارية الصناعية, rated capacity in t/h commonly describes the mass of steam the boiler is designed to generate per hour at specified operating conditions.

على سبيل المثال:

• 1 t/h = 1,000 كجم/ساعة
• 2 t/h = 2,000 كجم/ساعة
• 5 t/h = 5,000 كجم/ساعة
• 10 t/h = 10,000 كجم/ساعة
• 20 t/h = 20,000 كجم/ساعة

لكن, boiler selection should not be based on the converted number alone.

Actual boiler sizing should also consider:

• minimum steam demand;
• normal steam demand;
• peak steam demand;
• ضغط العمل;
• steam temperature;
• وقود;
• operating hours;
• and expected future load.

If you are selecting a new boiler, see our Industrial Steam Boiler Buying Guide for a complete capacity, ضغط, fuel and TCO selection process.

إجابة سريعة

How do I convert kg/h of steam to ton/h?

Divide the steam flow in kg/h by 1,000:

t/h = kg/h ÷ 1,000

لذلك:

• 500 kg/h = 0.5 ذ
• 1,000 kg/h = 1 ذ
• 5,000 kg/h = 5 ذ
• 10,000 kg/h = 10 ذ
• 20,000 kg/h = 20 ذ

Always confirm that “ton” means metric ton (tonne) when preparing an international industrial boiler specification or quotation.
