What does gallon (UK)/minute measure?

It measures volumetric flow rate as the number of UK imperial gallons passing per minute, commonly used in engineering and plumbing contexts.

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

Converting to cubic foot/hour helps unify measurements across systems using different unit standards, especially for engineering and industrial applications.

Can I use this converter for compressible gas flows?

This tool assumes steady or incompressible flow; compressible gas flows may need additional considerations beyond this conversion.
