What does cubic centimeter/hour measure in flow terms?

It measures volumetric flow indicating how many cubic centimeters (or milliliters) of fluid pass a point each hour, often used for very low flow rates.

When should I use gallons (US) per second instead of cubic centimeters per hour?

Gallons (US) per second are suited for higher-capacity flows such as firefighting pumps, large irrigation systems, and industrial process lines, unlike the smaller scale cubic centimeters per hour.

Is this conversion applicable for medical dosing?

Yes, converting between these units helps relate precise medical pump infusion rates to larger scales if needed for equipment calibration or reporting.

Provides conversion using exact defined relationships between units
Browser-based and easy to use without installation

Examples

Convert 100 cubic centimeters per hour to gallon (US)/second to get approximately 7.3381125655e-6 gallons per second
Converting 1000 cubic centimeters per hour yields about 7.3381125655e-5 gallons per second
Use these sample values to understand very low flow translations into larger flow units

Common Use Cases

Setting and reporting very low infusion rates in neonatal or drug microdosing pumps
Specifying fluid flow in microfluidic experiments and precision syringe or peristaltic pumps
Measuring small leakage or dispensing rates in engineering tests
Defining discharge rates in firefighting and irrigation pump systems
Estimating throughput during short liquid transfer operations such as tanker unloading

Tips & Best Practices

Always consider the large difference in magnitude when converting between these units
Use this conversion to compare micro-scale flow rates with industrial scale flows reliably
Double-check the units selected before converting to avoid misinterpretation
Apply results carefully where precision is critical, especially with very low flow values

Limitations

Significant scale difference means converted values can be very small decimal numbers
Conversion should be used when differences in magnitude are understood to prevent mistakes
Not suitable for direct use where flow rates must be interpreted without acknowledging scale changes
