How to Convert Pint per hour to Gallon per minute
1 pnt/h = 0.0020833333333333333 gal/min
1 gal/min = 480 pnt/h
Example: convert 10 pnt/h to gal/min:
10 pnt/h = 10 x 0.0020833333333333333 = 0.020833333333333332 gal/min
Pint per hour
Definition: A pint per hour (pnt/h) 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 hour.
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 hour' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Pints per hour is used to quantify slow fluid flow rates, making it suitable for applications like drip irrigation systems, certain chemical processes, or slow dispensing mechanisms.
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.
