Unit Description

Cubic Meter per Minute (m³/min)

Definition

Cubic meter per minute (m³/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid passing through a given area in one minute. It equals approximately 16.67 liters per second, providing a convenient scale for medium-scale flow measurements.

History

The m³/min unit developed as a practical alternative to m³/s for applications where flow rates were moderate and minute-based measurements were more convenient. It became common in HVAC systems, industrial processes, and water treatment applications.

Current Use

M³/min is commonly used in HVAC systems for air flow measurements, water treatment plants, industrial process control, and medium-scale pumping systems. It's standard for ventilation system specifications, cooling tower flow rates, and industrial fluid handling equipment.

Gallon per Minute (gal/min)

Definition

Gallon per minute (gal/min or GPM) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in gallons passing through a given area per minute. It's one of the most common flow rate units in American water and fluid systems.

History

The GPM unit became standard in American plumbing, water systems, and fluid handling applications. It provided convenient numerical values for residential and commercial water systems, becoming the primary unit for pump ratings, plumbing design, and water system specifications in the United States.

Current Use

GPM is extensively used in American plumbing, water supply systems, pumps, and fluid handling equipment. It's standard for water pump ratings, plumbing fixture flow rates, irrigation systems, and residential/commercial water system design and specifications.
