About the year and the hour

The year

Convertitive uses the Julian year, defined as exactly 365.25 days × 86,400 s/day = 31,557,600 seconds. This is the IAU-standard year used for astronomical distances such as the light year. The Gregorian (calendar) year averages 365.2425 days — about 11 minutes shorter — and the tropical year (one full seasonal cycle) is about 365.2422 days.

The hour

The hour (h) equals exactly 3,600 seconds, or 60 minutes. It is the standard unit for daily scheduling, employment, and short-distance travel time. Like the minute, it is accepted for use with the SI but is not strictly part of the SI system.
