Gallon per second
Definition: A gallon per second (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate that measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time, specifically in gallons and seconds. It is commonly used in contexts where relatively large volumes of liquids are transferred quickly.
History/origin: The gallon is a unit of volume with historical roots in various systems of liquid measurement. The 'per second' component simply standardizes the volume measurement to a time interval. Its origin ties back to practical needs in trade and industry to quantify liquid flow.
Current use: It is used in various applications, including industrial processes, water treatment plants, and contexts where high flow rates are significant, such as in firefighting or large-scale pumping operations. It provides a clear measure of liquid flow speed.
Cubic inch per minute
Definition: A cubic inch per minute (in3/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a substance passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of volume, measured in cubic inches, that flows every minute.
History/origin: The cubic inch is derived from the inch, a unit of length in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. The 'per minute' component indicates the rate at which the volume is changing over time. The exact origin is linked to the establishment of these measurement systems.
Current use: Cubic inches per minute is used in various engineering and manufacturing applications, especially in contexts where precise control over small fluid or gas flow rates is important. It can be found in applications related to engines, pumps, and fluid dynamics testing.
