How to Convert Cubic meter per hour to Cubic meter per minuteCubic meter per minute
1 m3/h = 0.016666666666666666 m3/min
1 m3/min = 60 m3/h
Example: convert 10 m3/h to m3/min:
10 m3/h = 10 x 0.016666666666666666 = 0.16666666666666666 m3/min
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 meter per minute
Definition: A cubic meter per minute (m3/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate indicating one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one minute. It measures medium to large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: Derived from the cubic meter, the SI unit for volume. 'Per minute' specifies the rate of flow. This unit became important with the increasing need for accurate measurement and control of fluids and gasses in industrial and engineering applications.
Current use: M3/min is employed in ventilation systems, industrial processes involving moderate fluid or gas flow, and in measuring the output of pumps and compressors. It is also used to quantify the flow of air in HVAC systems and the flow of fluids in manufacturing processes.
