How to Convert Fluid Ounce per second to Cup per secondCup per second
1 fl-oz/s = 0.125 cup/s
1 cup/s = 8 fl-oz/s
Example: convert 4 fl-oz/s to cup/s:
4 fl-oz/s = 4 x 0.125 = 0.5 cup/s
Fluid Ounce per second
Definition: A fluid ounce per second (fl-oz/s) 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 second.
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 second' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Fluid ounces per second is used in situations where measuring relatively quick fluid flow is required. It is commonly used in applications such as dispensing systems, high-speed filling operations, and scientific experiments involving fluid dynamics.
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.
