1 cm3/s = 0.015850323140625 gal/min
1 gal/min = 63.09019640343866 cm3/s
Example: convert 40 cm3/s to gal/min:
40 cm3/s = 40 x 0.015850323140625 = 0.634012925625 gal/min
Cubic Centimeter per second
Definition: Cubic centimeters per second (cm³/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time. Specifically, it measures the volume in cubic centimeters that flows past a point in one second.
History/origin: Like mm³/s, it's derived from SI units. The cubic centimeter is a derived unit of volume (1 cm³ = 1 mL), and the 'per second' component indicates flow rate.
Current use: cm³/s is a commonly used unit for measuring small to medium flow rates in various scientific, engineering, and medical applications. It's often used interchangeably with milliliters per second (mL/s) since 1 cm³ = 1 mL.
Gallon per minute
Definition: Gallons per minute (gal/min) is a unit of flow rate that represents the volume of fluid that passes a point in one minute, measured in gallons. This is a widely used measure in many industries for flow quantification.
History/origin: Like gal/s, the origin comes from the need to measure fluid flow rates in practical applications. The gallon is an established unit of volume, and the 'per minute' component allows for a convenient measurement over a manageable time interval.
Current use: It's used extensively in applications like measuring water flow in households, industrial processes, and in vehicle fuel consumption. It is a common unit for pumps, showers, and irrigation systems.
