How to Convert Kilolitre per hour to Cubic foot per minuteCubic foot per minute
1 kl/h = 0.5885780820172406 ft3/min
1 ft3/min = 1.69900991992887 kl/h
Example: convert 96 kl/h to ft3/min:
96 kl/h = 96 x 0.5885780820172406 = 56.5034958736551 ft3/min
Kilolitre per hour
Definition: A kilolitre per hour (kl/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate equal to 1,000 liters passing a point in one hour. It is used to measure relatively smaller volumes of liquid flow compared to kl/min or kl/s, but over a longer period.
History/origin: The unit stems from the litre, with 'kilo-' indicating 1000 litres. 'Per hour' denotes the flow rate over an hour. The development aligns with the need for standardised units to measure and control fluid transfer in various applications.
Current use: Kl/h is typically used in industrial processes, water treatment plants, and environmental monitoring where flow rates are lower and measured over longer durations. For example, measuring the flow rate of water in a small treatment plant or the flow rate of chemicals in a production line.
Cubic foot per minute
Definition: Cubic feet per minute (ft3/min) is a flow rate unit that measures the volume of fluid or gas passing a point in one minute, measured in cubic feet. It is prevalent in many engineering applications.
History/origin: Like ft3/s, it combines the cubic foot volume unit with a time element, in this case, one minute. This allows a practical assessment of volume flow over a reasonable time.
Current use: It is common in HVAC systems for measuring air flow, pneumatic systems, and industrial processes where controlling gas or fluid volume is crucial.
