66 m3/s = 66 x 4226.7528375 = 278965.68727500003 cup/s
Cubic meter per second
Definition: A cubic meter per second (m3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one second. It is used to measure very large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: The cubic meter is a metric unit derived from the meter, a fundamental unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). 'Per second' indicates the rate of flow. Its origins lie in the development of standardized metric units for scientific and engineering applications.
Current use: M3/s is commonly used in hydrology (river flow measurement), large-scale industrial processes, and in the operation of hydroelectric power plants where the movement of large volumes of water is critical.
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.
