I have seen the following questions: Pluralization of acronyms ending in 'S', What is the correct way to pluralize an acronym? or Plurals of acronyms, letters, numbers — use an apostrophe or not?
In all of them, the plural of in the extended form goes in the end:
One compact disk, two compact disks
One automated teller machines, two automated teller machines
My question is, what about acronyms (or initialisms...) such as
One rotation per hour: 1 RPH
Two rotations per hour: 2 ???
(Note that RPH is a home-made acronym.)
Obviously RsPH is not an appropriate choice, but RPHs seems a bit strange (I would be fine for rotation per hours, but maybe not for rotations per hour).
Any piece of advice?
