What does cubic inch per minute measure?

It measures volumetric flow rate of liquids or gases, indicating volume passing a point each minute on a small scale.

Why convert to barrel (US) per second?

This unit is commonly used in oil production and pipeline monitoring to express large volumetric flow rates.

Can this converter be used for other units?

No, it specifically converts from cubic inch per minute to barrel (US) per second only.
