What does a cubic yard per minute measure?

It measures the volume of a 3-foot cube passing a point every minute, representing a volumetric flow rate.

Why convert from cubic yard/minute to gallon (UK)/hour?

To translate large flow rates into smaller, more precise units useful in water treatment or industrial monitoring.

Is gallon (UK)/hour the same as gallon (US)/hour?

No, UK gallons and US gallons differ, so correct interpretation of units is essential for accurate conversion.
