1 fl-oz/s = 1.7744117738467124 l/min
1 l/min = 0.563567045 fl-oz/s
Example: convert 87 fl-oz/s to l/min:
87 fl-oz/s = 87 x 1.7744117738467124 = 154.37382432466399 l/min
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.
Litre per minute
Definition: Liters per minute (L/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time, measured in liters per minute.
History/origin: The liter (L) is a metric unit of volume. Using 'per minute' provides a convenient timescale for many practical applications.
Current use: L/min is a very common unit for measuring fluid flow rates in diverse applications, including medical equipment (e.g., oxygen concentrators), automotive systems, and home appliances (e.g., water softeners).
