How to Convert Litre per hour to Cup per secondCup per second
1 l/h = 0.0011740980104166668 cup/s
1 cup/s = 851.717651446422 l/h
Example: convert 72 l/h to cup/s:
72 l/h = 72 x 0.0011740980104166668 = 0.08453505675 cup/s
Litre per hour
Definition: Liters per hour (L/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time, measured in liters per hour.
History/origin: The liter (L) is a metric unit of volume. Using 'per hour' provides a convenient timescale for processes that involve slower flow rates.
Current use: L/h is used for measuring very slow flow rates, such as in drip irrigation systems, chemical dosing, or water purification processes.
Cup per second
Definition: A cup per second (cup/s) 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 cups, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'cup' is a unit of volume primarily used in cooking and is part of the United States customary system of measurement. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of change over time. The precise origin can be linked to the standardization of kitchen measurements.
Current use: Cups per second is rarely used in formal scientific or engineering contexts due to the relatively large and imprecise nature of the 'cup' unit. It might be encountered in high-volume dispensing or filling operations where speed is critical.
