34 in3/s = 34 x 1.638698846677003e-14 = 5.57157607870181e-13 km3/s
Cubic inch per second
Definition: A cubic inch per second (in3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic inch of substance passing a point in one second. It measures small to medium volumes, particularly in engineering contexts.
History/origin: The cubic inch is a unit of volume in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. 'Per second' signifies the rate of flow. It is primarily used in the US, where imperial units are still prevalent.
Current use: In3/s is used in mechanical engineering (e.g., measuring the flow of hydraulic fluids), in the design of engines and pumps, and in other industrial applications where smaller fluid volumes are handled. It is frequently used when measuring the flow of fluids in car engines.
Cubic kilometer per second
Definition: A cubic kilometer per second (km3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic kilometer of substance passing a point in one second. It is used to measure extremely large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: The unit combines the cubic kilometer, a very large unit of volume, with 'per second,' indicating an extremely high rate of flow. It's primarily used in geological or astrophysical contexts where vast quantities are involved.
Current use: Km3/s is used in fields such as astrophysics (e.g., measuring material ejected from celestial events), geology (e.g., estimating the volume of volcanic eruptions), and extremely large scale fluid dynamic modeling.
