1 ft3/min = 448.8309375 gal/h
1 gal/h = 0.0022280104075936163 ft3/min
Example: convert 29 ft3/min to gal/h:
29 ft3/min = 29 x 448.8309375 = 13016.0971875 gal/h
Cubic foot per minute
Definition: Cubic feet per minute (ft3/min) is a flow rate unit that measures the volume of fluid or gas passing a point in one minute, measured in cubic feet. It is prevalent in many engineering applications.
History/origin: Like ft3/s, it combines the cubic foot volume unit with a time element, in this case, one minute. This allows a practical assessment of volume flow over a reasonable time.
Current use: It is common in HVAC systems for measuring air flow, pneumatic systems, and industrial processes where controlling gas or fluid volume is crucial.
Gallon per hour
Definition: Gallons per hour (gal/h) is a flow rate unit that expresses how many gallons of fluid pass a point in one hour. It is suitable for measuring slow flow rates over extended durations.
History/origin: The unit is built upon the standard gallon unit of volume combined with a 'per hour' timeframe, useful for situations where flow rates are relatively slow.
Current use: Applications include measuring fuel consumption rates in vehicles, low-flow chemical dosing, and the monitoring of slow leaks in fluid systems.
