What does cubic centimeter/hour measure?

It measures volumetric flow rate as the passage of one cubic centimeter (one milliliter) of fluid per hour, commonly used for very low steady flows.

Why convert cubic centimeter/hour to milliliter/second?

Converting allows for expressing flow rates with finer time resolution, making it easier to compare flows with rates defined per second in medical and laboratory contexts.

Are there any accuracy concerns with this conversion?

Yes, very small decimal values from the conversion may be affected by rounding, and flow stability must be considered to avoid errors, especially in transient conditions.
