What does cubic inch per minute measure?

It quantifies volumetric flow as one cubic inch of fluid passing a point each minute, often used for small-scale liquid or gas flow measurement.

Why convert cubic inch/minute to cubic foot/minute?

Converting to cubic foot/minute helps translate small flow measurements into standard larger units used in HVAC and industrial systems.

Does this conversion consider temperature or pressure?

No, the conversion is purely volumetric and does not account for temperature or pressure variations.
