How to Convert Cubic yard per second to Cubic yard per minuteCubic yard per minute
1 yd3/s = 60 yd3/min
1 yd3/min = 0.016666666666666666 yd3/s
Example: convert 85 yd3/s to yd3/min:
85 yd3/s = 85 x 60 = 5100 yd3/min
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 yard per minute
Definition: Cubic yards per minute (yd3/min) is a flow rate unit specifying the volume of material (liquid or solid) passing a point in one minute, measured in cubic yards. It's suitable for substantial, but not extremely rapid, volume transfers.
History/origin: Like yd3/s, it is based on the cubic yard volume unit. The minute time frame provides a more practical interval for volume rate assessment.
Current use: It's used in mining operations, concrete pouring for large structures, and industrial processes involving substantial material transfer.
