What Is This Tool?
This converter changes volumetric flow rates from cubic centimeter per second, a unit commonly used for small fluid flows, into milliliter per day, suitable for expressing low continuous or cumulative flow rates over a day.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the flow value in cubic centimeter per second.
-
Select cubic centimeter/second as the input unit.
-
Choose milliliter/day [mL/d] as the output unit.
-
Click the convert button to get the equivalent flow rate in milliliter per day.
Key Features
-
Converts volumetric flow from cubic centimeter/second to milliliter/day.
-
Supports measurements relevant to medical, laboratory, and environmental fields.
-
Browser-based and easy to use without installation.
Examples
-
2 cubic centimeter/second converts to 172800 milliliter/day.
-
0.5 cubic centimeter/second converts to 43200 milliliter/day.
Common Use Cases
-
Calculating infusion or syringe pump delivery rates in medical settings.
-
Measuring precise flow rates in microfluidics and laboratory experiments.
-
Monitoring low-rate fluid output such as urine volume or surgical drain volumes.
-
Environmental and engineering evaluation of small leak or seepage rates.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure flow rate remains constant during measurement for accurate conversion.
-
Use the converter to align short-term flow rates with daily total volumes.
-
Verify unit selections to avoid errors in conversion results.
Limitations
-
Conversion assumes steady flow throughout the day and may not suit variable flows.
-
Accuracy can be affected by device sensitivity for very low flow measurements.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does one cubic centimeter/second represent?
-
It represents a volumetric flow rate where one cubic centimeter of fluid passes a point every second, equivalent to one milliliter per second.
-
Why convert cubic centimeter/second to milliliter/day?
-
To express small continuous or cumulative flow rates over a full day, particularly useful in clinical and environmental monitoring.
-
Can this tool handle variable flow rates?
-
No, it assumes a constant flow rate over the entire day for accurate conversion.
Key Terminology
-
Cubic centimeter/second
-
A volumetric flow rate unit indicating one cubic centimeter of fluid passing per second, equating to 1 milliliter per second.
-
Milliliter/day [mL/d]
-
A unit expressing the volume of fluid moved over a full day, useful for very low continuous or cumulative flow rates.
