How to Convert Cubic foot per hour to Gallon per minuteGallon per minute
1 ft3/h = 0.12467526041666667 gal/min
1 gal/min = 8.020837467337019 ft3/h
Example: convert 33 ft3/h to gal/min:
33 ft3/h = 33 x 0.12467526041666667 = 4.11428359375 gal/min
Cubic foot per hour
Definition: Cubic feet per hour (ft3/h) is a flow rate unit that specifies the volume of fluid or gas passing a point in one hour, measured in cubic feet. It's useful for slower flow rates.
History/origin: This unit's origin lies in combining the cubic foot volume with an hourly time frame, making it suitable for scenarios where volume flow is relatively slow.
Current use: It's applied in scenarios like measuring gas consumption in homes, low-flow ventilation systems, and processes that require slow, controlled delivery of gas or fluids.
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.
