How to Convert Cubic yard per second to Cubic foot per second
1 yd3/s = 27.000039686435386 ft3/s
1 ft3/s = 0.03703698259756234 yd3/s
Example: convert 10 yd3/s to ft3/s:
10 yd3/s = 10 x 27.000039686435386 = 270.0003968643539 ft3/s
Cubic yard per second
Definition: A cubic yard per second (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate representing the volume of material (often liquid or solid) that passes a point in one second, measured in cubic yards. It's used for very high-volume transfers.
History/origin: This unit combines the cubic yard, a larger volume unit, with the second as a time unit, used to measure very high flow volumes.
Current use: It's commonly used in large-scale civil engineering projects, such as dam construction, large earth-moving operations, and massive industrial processes.
Cubic foot per second
Definition: A cubic foot per second (ft3/s) is a unit of flow rate that represents the volume of fluid (or sometimes gas) passing a point in one second, measured in cubic feet. It's used where large volumes are transferred rapidly.
History/origin: This unit combines the cubic foot, a common volume measurement, with the second as the unit of time. It allows quantifying how quickly a volume of substance moves.
Current use: It's commonly used in hydrology for measuring river flow, in HVAC systems for air flow, and in industrial applications involving high-volume fluid or gas transfer.
