What does cubic inch/minute measure?

It measures volumetric flow as the volume of one cubic inch passing a point per minute, often used for small-scale fluid or gas flow.

Why convert to gallon (UK)/second?

Converting to gallon (UK)/second facilitates compatibility with UK-based imperial systems commonly found in waterworks and industrial processes.

Is this conversion suitable for high flow rates?

This tool is best suited for low flow rates given the small scale of cubic inch/minute compared to gallon (UK)/second units.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts flow rates measured in cubic inch per minute, a small-scale volumetric flow unit, into gallon (UK) per second, an imperial volumetric flow unit commonly used in UK-based systems and industrial processes.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow amount in cubic inch/minute [in^3/min]
Select gallon (UK)/second as the target unit
Click convert to obtain the equivalent flow rate
Review the converted value for use in your engineering or industrial context

Key Features

Converts flow rates between cubic inch/minute and gallon (UK)/second
Uses precise conversion rate based on recognized volumetric definitions
Supports applications in engineering, waterworks, and industrial monitoring
Browser-based and easy to use without installation

Examples

10 cubic inch/minute equals 0.000600775 gallon (UK)/second
100 cubic inch/minute equals 0.00600775 gallon (UK)/second

Common Use Cases

Calculating leak or purge rates in pneumatic and hydraulic systems
Characterizing output from small pumps or laboratory tubing flows
Estimating water flow in older British waterworks and firefighting systems
Monitoring process flows in industrial or ship systems using imperial units

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure accuracy by entering precise flow measurements in cubic inch/minute
Use this conversion mainly for low flow rates due to scale differences
Cross-check converted values when integrating with legacy imperial unit documentation
Consider measurement fluctuations when interpreting converted results

Limitations

Conversion mixes different base volume and time units, leading to potential precision variation
Primarily suitable for small-scale flows; not ideal for very high flow volumes
Measurement accuracy and temporal changes in flow rate may affect results
