How to Convert Gallon per second to Cubic Millimeter per secondCubic Millimeter per second
1 gal/s = 3785411.78420632 mm3/s
1 mm3/s = 2.6417205234375e-7 gal/s
Example: convert 60 gal/s to mm3/s:
60 gal/s = 60 x 3785411.78420632 = 227124707.0523792 mm3/s
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 Millimeter per second
Definition: Cubic millimeters per second (mm³/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate, representing the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time. Specifically, it measures the volume in cubic millimeters that flows past a point in one second.
History/origin: This unit is derived from the fundamental SI units of length (meter) and time (second). The cubic millimeter is a derived unit of volume, and combining it with the 'per second' time component creates a flow rate unit.
Current use: mm³/s is used in applications where very small flow rates are relevant, such as microfluidics, precision dispensing systems, or in certain scientific instruments.
