Unit Description
Cubic Meter per Second (m³/s)
Definition
Cubic meter per second (m³/s) is the SI unit of volumetric flow rate, representing the volume of fluid passing through a given cross-sectional area per unit time. One cubic meter per second equals 1,000 liters per second.
History
The m³/s unit was established with the International System of Units (SI) as the standard scientific unit for volumetric flow rate. It became essential for hydraulic engineering, fluid mechanics, and large-scale flow measurements in rivers, pipelines, and industrial systems.
Current Use
M³/s is used in hydraulic engineering, river flow measurements, large pipeline systems, and scientific research. It's standard for measuring discharge rates of rivers, flow capacity of large pumps, and in fluid mechanics calculations for major water treatment and distribution systems.
Cubic Foot per Hour (ft³/h)
Definition
Cubic foot per hour (ft³/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in cubic feet passing through a given area per hour. It's used for continuous process measurements and gas flow applications.
History
The ft³/h unit became important in gas distribution and continuous industrial processes in the United States. It provided appropriate scaling for natural gas consumption, continuous air supply systems, and industrial processes where hourly measurements were more practical.
Current Use
Ft³/h is used in natural gas systems, continuous air supply, industrial process control, and gas appliance ratings in the United States. It's found in gas meter readings, industrial gas consumption measurements, and continuous process monitoring applications.
