1 cup/s = 0.00030944543509962206 yd3/s
1 yd3/s = 3231.5875 cup/s
Example: convert 83 cup/s to yd3/s:
83 cup/s = 83 x 0.00030944543509962206 = 0.02568397111326863 yd3/s
Cup per second
Definition: A cup per second (cup/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a substance passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of volume, measured in cups, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'cup' is a unit of volume primarily used in cooking and is part of the United States customary system of measurement. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of change over time. The precise origin can be linked to the standardization of kitchen measurements.
Current use: Cups per second is rarely used in formal scientific or engineering contexts due to the relatively large and imprecise nature of the 'cup' unit. It might be encountered in high-volume dispensing or filling operations where speed is critical.
Cubic yard per second
Definition: A cubic yard per second (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate representing the volume of material (often liquid or solid) that passes a point in one second, measured in cubic yards. It's used for very high-volume transfers.
History/origin: This unit combines the cubic yard, a larger volume unit, with the second as a time unit, used to measure very high flow volumes.
Current use: It's commonly used in large-scale civil engineering projects, such as dam construction, large earth-moving operations, and massive industrial processes.
