How to Convert Cubic foot per minute to Cubic yard per secondCubic yard per second
1 ft3/min = 0.0006172830432927057 yd3/s
1 yd3/s = 1620.002381186123 ft3/min
Example: convert 41 ft3/min to yd3/s:
41 ft3/min = 41 x 0.0006172830432927057 = 0.025308604775000933 yd3/s
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.
Cubic yard per second
Definition: A cubic yard per second (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate representing the volume of material (often liquid or solid) that passes a point in one second, measured in cubic yards. It's used for very high-volume transfers.
History/origin: This unit combines the cubic yard, a larger volume unit, with the second as a time unit, used to measure very high flow volumes.
Current use: It's commonly used in large-scale civil engineering projects, such as dam construction, large earth-moving operations, and massive industrial processes.
