Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does cubic centimeter/second measure?
-
It measures volumetric flow rate as one cubic centimeter of fluid passing a point every second, commonly used in laboratories and medical devices.
-
Why convert cubic centimeter/second to ounce (UK)/minute?
-
Conversion is essential to express small flow rates in imperial units for applications like beverage dispensing, dosing pumps, and equipment calibration that use UK fluid ounces.
-
Can this conversion be used for both liquids and gases?
-
Yes, the units represent volumetric flow rates applicable to liquids and gases in precise measurement contexts.
Key Terminology
-
Cubic centimeter/second
-
A metric unit of volumetric flow rate equivalent to one cubic centimeter passing a point each second, equal to 1 milliliter per second.
-
Ounce (UK)/minute
-
An imperial volumetric flow rate unit representing one UK fluid ounce passing a point every minute.
-
Volumetric flow rate
-
The quantity of fluid volume passing through a point per unit time.
