Why convert cubic inch/minute to liter/minute?

Converting these units allows users to work with the internationally recognized metric system, facilitating comparisons and calculations in engineering, medical, and scientific fields.

Can this conversion be used for all types of flow?

This conversion is best suited for steady volumetric flows; it may not accurately represent transient or pulsatile flow behavior.

Does temperature affect the conversion accuracy?

Yes, temperature and pressure differences impact volumetric flow measurements and should be considered separately from this conversion.
