How to Convert Cubic foot per hour to Cubic meter per minuteCubic meter per minute
1 ft3/h = 0.0004719471999802417 m3/min
1 m3/min = 2118.8810952620665 ft3/h
Example: convert 86 ft3/h to m3/min:
86 ft3/h = 86 x 0.0004719471999802417 = 0.040587459198300785 m3/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.
Cubic meter per minute
Definition: A cubic meter per minute (m3/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate indicating one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one minute. It measures medium to large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: Derived from the cubic meter, the SI unit for volume. 'Per minute' specifies the rate of flow. This unit became important with the increasing need for accurate measurement and control of fluids and gasses in industrial and engineering applications.
Current use: M3/min is employed in ventilation systems, industrial processes involving moderate fluid or gas flow, and in measuring the output of pumps and compressors. It is also used to quantify the flow of air in HVAC systems and the flow of fluids in manufacturing processes.
