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.

Millihertz (mHz)

Definition

A millihertz (mHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one thousandth of a hertz (0.001 Hz). It represents very low frequencies found in extremely slow oscillations, geological processes, and some biological rhythms.

History

The millihertz became necessary for describing extremely slow periodic phenomena in scientific research. It was particularly important in geophysics, astronomy, and biological studies where natural cycles occur over very long time periods.

Current Use

Millihertz is used in geophysics for seismic wave analysis, astronomy for stellar oscillations, biological research for circadian rhythms, and precision timing applications. It's essential for measuring very slow natural cycles and long-period oscillations.
