What does cubic foot per hour measure?

It measures the volume of a fluid moving through a point or system cross-section in one hour, specifically one cubic foot of volume per hour.

When should I use liter per hour unit?

Liter per hour is suited for monitoring low to moderate continuous liquid flows such as fuel consumption or chemical dosing.

Can I apply this conversion to gases and liquids directly?

The conversion applies directly under standard conditions but differences in fluid state, temperature, and pressure can affect accuracy.
