Cubic yard per hour
Definition: Cubic yards per hour (yd3/h) is a flow rate unit that describes the volume of material (liquid or solid) passing a point in one hour, measured in cubic yards. It is suitable for slower, large-volume material transfers.
History/origin: Originating from the cubic yard as a volume unit, this measure utilizes an hourly time frame. It is helpful in contexts that require slow, precise material delivery.
Current use: It's used in construction for estimating material needs over time, in certain agricultural processes, and in industrial processes with slower material throughput.
Kilolitre per second
Definition: A kilolitre per second (kl/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate equal to 1,000 liters passing a point in one second. It is used to measure large volumes of liquid flow.
History/origin: The kilolitre is a metric unit of volume, derived from the litre (symbol: L), with the prefix 'kilo-' indicating a factor of 1000. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of flow over time, making the unit suitable for flow rate measurements. Its origin is directly tied to the establishment of the metric system in France in the late 18th century.
Current use: Kl/s is used in industrial processes, water management, and large-scale fluid transfer applications where quantifying high flow rates is necessary. Examples include measuring water flow in large pipelines, industrial coolant systems, and discharge rates from reservoirs.
