Unit Description

Gallon per Second (gal/s)

Definition

Gallon per second (gal/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in gallons passing through a given area per second. It's used for high-flow applications in American systems.

History

The gal/s unit developed for high-capacity water and fluid handling systems in the United States. It became useful for large pumping systems, fire protection, and industrial applications where gallon-per-minute measurements would result in very large numbers.

Current Use

Gal/s is used in large-scale water systems, fire protection, high-capacity pumps, and industrial fluid handling in the United States. It's standard for large pump specifications, fire suppression systems, and major water distribution system measurements.

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.
