1 fl-oz/h = 8.214869323364409e-9 m3/s
1 m3/s = 121730481.72 fl-oz/h
Example: convert 6 fl-oz/h to m3/s:
6 fl-oz/h = 6 x 8.214869323364409e-9 = 4.928921594018645e-8 m3/s
Fluid Ounce per hour
Definition: A fluid ounce per hour (fl-oz/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a fluid passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of fluid volume, measured in fluid ounces, that flows every hour.
History/origin: The fluid ounce is a unit of volume in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. Its historical origins can be traced back to systems of apothecary measures and later standardization for commercial purposes. The 'per hour' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Fluid ounces per hour is used in applications where measuring very slow fluid flow rates is needed, such as small drip systems, certain chemical processes, or laboratory experiments requiring slow infusion rates.
Cubic meter per second
Definition: A cubic meter per second (m3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one second. It is used to measure very large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: The cubic meter is a metric unit derived from the meter, a fundamental unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). 'Per second' indicates the rate of flow. Its origins lie in the development of standardized metric units for scientific and engineering applications.
Current use: M3/s is commonly used in hydrology (river flow measurement), large-scale industrial processes, and in the operation of hydroelectric power plants where the movement of large volumes of water is critical.
