Mass Flow Units

A mass flow is the ratio of the mass of a substance passing through a unit area of the cross section of the flow per unit time.

International System of Units (SI)

  In metrological measurements, derivatives from these units are also used:

In view of the fact that in some English-speaking countries as a measure of weight used different from the kilogram unit, we bring them to 1 kilogram, to derive the ratio:

And then we calculate:
