How to Convert Cubic meter per hour to Cubic kilometer per secondCubic kilometer per second
1 m3/h = 2.777777777777778e-13 km3/s
1 km3/s = 3600000000000 m3/h
Example: convert 3 m3/h to km3/s:
3 m3/h = 3 x 2.777777777777778e-13 = 8.333333333333334e-13 km3/s
Cubic meter per hour
Definition: A cubic meter per hour (m3/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one hour. It is used to measure smaller volumes of fluid or gas flow compared to m3/min or m3/s, but over a longer period.
History/origin: Based on the cubic meter as the unit of volume, and 'per hour' denoting the time frame. The unit's creation addresses the need for quantifying lower flow rates in various industrial and environmental applications.
Current use: M3/h is common in heating and cooling systems, small-scale industrial processes, and in monitoring environmental parameters where slower rates of flow are typical. Examples include measuring gas consumption in households, flow rates in chemical processing and measuring the flow of water in heating systems.
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.
