Example: convert 73 ft3/s to m3/h:
73 ft3/s = 73 x 101.94059519573221 = 7441.663449288451 m3/h
Cubic foot per second
Definition: A cubic foot per second (ft3/s) is a unit of flow rate that represents the volume of fluid (or sometimes gas) passing a point in one second, measured in cubic feet. It's used where large volumes are transferred rapidly.
History/origin: This unit combines the cubic foot, a common volume measurement, with the second as the unit of time. It allows quantifying how quickly a volume of substance moves.
Current use: It's commonly used in hydrology for measuring river flow, in HVAC systems for air flow, and in industrial applications involving high-volume fluid or gas transfer.
Cubic meter per hour
Definition: A cubic meter per hour (m3/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one hour. It is used to measure smaller volumes of fluid or gas flow compared to m3/min or m3/s, but over a longer period.
History/origin: Based on the cubic meter as the unit of volume, and 'per hour' denoting the time frame. The unit's creation addresses the need for quantifying lower flow rates in various industrial and environmental applications.
Current use: M3/h is common in heating and cooling systems, small-scale industrial processes, and in monitoring environmental parameters where slower rates of flow are typical. Examples include measuring gas consumption in households, flow rates in chemical processing and measuring the flow of water in heating systems.
