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.
Kilolitre per second
Definition: A kilolitre per second (kl/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate equal to 1,000 liters passing a point in one second. It is used to measure large volumes of liquid flow.
History/origin: The kilolitre is a metric unit of volume, derived from the litre (symbol: L), with the prefix 'kilo-' indicating a factor of 1000. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of flow over time, making the unit suitable for flow rate measurements. Its origin is directly tied to the establishment of the metric system in France in the late 18th century.
Current use: Kl/s is used in industrial processes, water management, and large-scale fluid transfer applications where quantifying high flow rates is necessary. Examples include measuring water flow in large pipelines, industrial coolant systems, and discharge rates from reservoirs.
