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 liter per minute is 0.00001666666667 base units; one us gallon per minute is 0.0000630901964 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.
