What is a cubic meter per minute?

It is a unit measuring volumetric flow rate, representing one cubic meter of fluid passing a point every minute, commonly used in engineering.

Why convert cubic meter per minute to gallon (UK) per second?

This conversion helps translate flow rates from metric units into imperial units still used in some industries and legacy systems in the UK.

How precise is the conversion?

The conversion uses exact definitions but requires careful attention to time units and may involve rounding if not applied properly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a cubic meter per minute?: It is a unit measuring volumetric flow rate, representing one cubic meter of fluid passing a point every minute, commonly used in engineering.
Why convert cubic meter per minute to gallon (UK) per second?: This conversion helps translate flow rates from metric units into imperial units still used in some industries and legacy systems in the UK.
How precise is the conversion?: The conversion uses exact definitions but requires careful attention to time units and may involve rounding if not applied properly.

Key Terminology

Cubic meter per minute (m³/min): A volumetric flow unit measuring the volume of fluid passing a point every minute, commonly applied in engineering contexts for airflow and liquid flow.
Gallon (UK)/second: A volumetric flow rate unit representing one imperial (UK) gallon of fluid passing a point each second, where one UK gallon equals 4.54609 litres.
Volumetric flow rate: The measure of the volume of fluid that passes through a given surface per unit time.

Quick Knowledge Check

What does cubic meter per minute measure?

Mass flow rate

Volumetric flow rate over one minute

Pressure per unit area

How many gallon (UK) per second equal one cubic meter per minute?

2.5

3.666

4.546

Why is attention to time units important in this conversion?

Because the units use different time bases (minute vs. second)

Because both use seconds as the base time

Because time units are not involved in flow rates
