Unit Description
Cubic Foot per Second (ft³/s)
Definition
Cubic foot per second (ft³/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in cubic feet passing through a given area per second. It equals approximately 0.0283 cubic meters per second.
History
The ft³/s unit developed with American hydraulic engineering and water management systems. It became the standard unit for measuring river flows, water supply systems, and large-scale fluid handling in the United States, particularly for natural water systems and civil engineering projects.
Current Use
Ft³/s is extensively used in the United States for river flow measurements, water supply systems, flood control, and hydraulic engineering. It's standard for USGS stream gauging, water rights allocations, dam discharge measurements, and civil engineering hydraulic calculations.
Milliliter per Minute (mL/min)
Definition
Milliliter per minute (mL/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in milliliters passing through a given area per minute. It's used for precise, small-scale flow measurements.
History
The mL/min unit became essential with the development of precision medical equipment, analytical instruments, and microfluidics. It provided appropriate scaling for applications involving small volumes and precise flow control, particularly in medical and laboratory settings.
Current Use
mL/min is extensively used in medical devices (syringe pumps, dialysis machines), analytical chemistry, microfluidics, and precision dosing systems. It's standard for medical infusion pumps, chromatography systems, and laboratory analytical equipment requiring precise flow control.
