How to Convert Quart per second to Gallon per hourGallon per hour
1 qt/s = 900 gal/h
1 gal/h = 0.0011111111111111111 qt/s
Example: convert 46 qt/s to gal/h:
46 qt/s = 46 x 900 = 41400 gal/h
Quart per second
Definition: A quart per second (qt/s) 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 quarts, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'quart' 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 second' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Quarts per second is indicative of a high fluid flow rate, typically seen in high-volume pumping, rapid dispensing systems, and industrial fluid transfer applications.
Gallon per hour
Definition: Gallons per hour (gal/h) is a flow rate unit that expresses how many gallons of fluid pass a point in one hour. It is suitable for measuring slow flow rates over extended durations.
History/origin: The unit is built upon the standard gallon unit of volume combined with a 'per hour' timeframe, useful for situations where flow rates are relatively slow.
Current use: Applications include measuring fuel consumption rates in vehicles, low-flow chemical dosing, and the monitoring of slow leaks in fluid systems.
