cubic foot per minute to liter per minute
Convert cubic foot per minute (ft³/min) to liter per minute (L/min). Use an editable volume flow rate converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 ft³/min = 28.31684659 L/min
Conversion formula
One cubic foot per minute equals 28.31684659 liter per minute. Multiply your value in cubic foot per minute by this factor to get liter per minute. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.

About these measurements
Volume flow rate measures fluid volume passing a point per unit time.
The base reference used here is the cubic meter per second. One cubic foot per minute is 0.0004719474432 base units; one liter per minute is 0.00001666666667 base units.
Important distinctions
Compound units must match the quantity and dimension. Temperature intervals use size factors rather than temperature offsets. Calorie and BTU entries use the explicit definitions shown.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
