How this tool works
Inputs, units and where to find them
| Input | Unit | Typical source |
|---|---|---|
| Volumetric flow rate value | The number exactly as written on the drawing, data sheet or quote. | |
| Unit of the entered value | choice | The unit printed beside the value; check prefixes such as k, M and m. |
Method and formulas
- Value in m³/s = entered value × factor of the entered unit.
- Value in each other unit = SI value ÷ that unit’s factor.
- Factors used (1 unit = … m³/s): m³/h 0.0002777777777777778; m³/min 0.016666666666666666; L/s 0.001; L/min 0.000016666666666666667; US gal/min 0.0000630901964; UK gal/min 0.00007576816666666667; ft³/min (cfm) 0.0004719474432; ft³/s 0.028316846592.
- Example: 100 L/min = 0.00166667 m³/s.
Limitations
- Displayed values are rounded to eight decimal places; small values use significant figures.
- For compressed air and gases, flow depends on the reference pressure and temperature (free air, normal or standard); keep the same reference on both sides.
- Example values are illustrations. Replace them with values for your actual task.
Typical uses
- Convert volumetric flow rate values on drawings, data sheets and quotes
- Check supplier data given in other units
Who it is for
- Engineers
- Technicians
- Buyers and estimators
What you get
- The volumetric flow rate in each listed unit
- Value in m³/s
Interpreting the result
- Use the unit your specification is written in, and keep the original value on record.
