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.
Cubic foot per hour
Definition: Cubic feet per hour (ft3/h) is a flow rate unit that specifies the volume of fluid or gas passing a point in one hour, measured in cubic feet. It's useful for slower flow rates.
History/origin: This unit's origin lies in combining the cubic foot volume with an hourly time frame, making it suitable for scenarios where volume flow is relatively slow.
Current use: It's applied in scenarios like measuring gas consumption in homes, low-flow ventilation systems, and processes that require slow, controlled delivery of gas or fluids.
