Example: convert 80 in3/h to m3/s:
80 in3/h = 80 x 4.551941240769452e-9 = 3.6415529926155614e-7 m3/s
Cubic inch per hour
Definition: A cubic inch per hour (in3/h) 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 hour.
History/origin: Similar to cubic inches per minute, this unit is derived from the inch, a unit of length in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. The 'per hour' component indicates the rate at which the volume is changing over time. Its origin is tied to the establishment of the imperial system.
Current use: Cubic inches per hour is used in contexts where measuring very small flow rates is necessary. It is utilized in applications where flow rates are expected to be very low, such as certain chemical processes or small-scale machinery.
Cubic meter per second
Definition: A cubic meter per second (m3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one second. It is used to measure very large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: The cubic meter is a metric unit derived from the meter, a fundamental unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). 'Per second' indicates the rate of flow. Its origins lie in the development of standardized metric units for scientific and engineering applications.
Current use: M3/s is commonly used in hydrology (river flow measurement), large-scale industrial processes, and in the operation of hydroelectric power plants where the movement of large volumes of water is critical.
