Unit Description
Revolutions per Hour (rph)
Definition
Revolutions per hour (rph) is a unit of rotational frequency representing the number of complete rotations around a fixed axis in one hour. It's used for very slow rotational systems and astronomical observations.
History
RPH became useful for describing very slow rotational systems such as astronomical observations, large industrial equipment, and systems where rotational speeds are extremely low. It provided appropriate scaling for applications where RPM would result in very small decimal numbers.
Current Use
RPH is used for astronomical observations (planetary rotation), very slow industrial processes, large rotating equipment, and systems with extremely low rotational speeds. It's found in astronomical calculations and specifications for very slow rotating machinery.
Microhertz (µHz)
Definition
A microhertz (µHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one millionth of a hertz (10⁻⁶ Hz). It represents extremely low frequencies found in astronomical phenomena, very slow biological processes, and precision scientific measurements.
History
The microhertz became important with advanced astronomical observations and precision scientific measurements. It was particularly crucial for describing stellar oscillations, planetary motions, and other astronomical phenomena with very long periods.
Current Use
Microhertz is used in astronomy for stellar seismology, precision timing systems, long-term biological studies, and advanced scientific research. It's essential for measuring astronomical oscillations, very slow biological rhythms, and ultra-precision frequency standards.
