17 pnt/min = 17 x 0.125 = 2.125 gal/min
Pint per minute
Definition: A pint per minute (pnt/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a fluid passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of fluid volume, measured in pints, that flows every minute.
History/origin: The 'pint' is a unit of volume in both the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. Its historical origins can be traced back to traditional systems of liquid measurement. The 'per minute' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Pints per minute is commonly used to measure moderately-paced fluid flow in various contexts, such as beverage dispensing, industrial processes, and fluid handling systems.
Gallon per minute
Definition: Gallons per minute (gal/min) is a unit of flow rate that represents the volume of fluid that passes a point in one minute, measured in gallons. This is a widely used measure in many industries for flow quantification.
History/origin: Like gal/s, the origin comes from the need to measure fluid flow rates in practical applications. The gallon is an established unit of volume, and the 'per minute' component allows for a convenient measurement over a manageable time interval.
Current use: It's used extensively in applications like measuring water flow in households, industrial processes, and in vehicle fuel consumption. It is a common unit for pumps, showers, and irrigation systems.
