How to Convert Revolution/day to Radian/second

Converting Revolution/day (rev/d) to Radian/second (rad/s) is a core calculation in Angular Velocity, which measures the rotational speed and rate of angular displacement per unit of time. Because Radian/second is a broader physical scale than Revolution/day, converting from rev/d to rad/s condenses the numerical figure. It takes 13750.987083 Revolution/day to equal a single Radian/second (1 rev/d = 7.272205 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s). To convert any quantity, multiply by 7.272205 × 10⁻⁵ (or divide by 13750.987083).

Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (radian per second (rad/s)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)
Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)
1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 rev/d = 7.272205 × 10⁻⁵ radian per second (rad/s)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 rad/s = 1 radian per second (rad/s)
Step-by-step substitution for Revolution/day → Radian/second:V(rad/s) = V(rev/d) × ( 7.272205 × 10⁻⁵ / 1 ) = V(rev/d) × 7.272205 × 10⁻⁵
Mathematical FormulaValue in Radian/second = Value in Revolution/day × 7.27220522 × 10⁻⁵Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
Worked Example

Converting 250 rev/d yields an exact output of 0.0181805 rad/s in Radian/second. Under higher industrial throughput, 2500 rev/d translates to 0.181805 rad/s.

Inverse check: 1 rad/s = 13750.987083 rev/d.

Radian/second

rad/s
SI Base Standard

A Radian/second (rad/s) is the official base standard unit for angular velocity.

Applications & Practical Context

In practical velocity angular terms, a planet Earth rotational angular velocity on its polar axis equals 7.27 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s, a four-pole AC induction electric motor synchronous speed at 60Hz equals 188.5 rad/s.

Physical Setup

An angular velocity of 1 rad/s indicates an object rotating through an angular displacement of 1 Radian/second each second.
