Can I use this conversion for gas flow rates directly?

This conversion translates volumetric flow rates but does not account for gas density or compressibility, so it is intended for volume comparisons rather than precise gas flow calculations.

Why are gallon (US)/minute and hundred-cubic foot/hour used in different contexts?

Gallon (US)/minute is typically used for liquid flows like water or fuel, while hundred-cubic foot/hour is common for low-to-moderate gas or air flows in utility and ventilation applications.

Does this tool consider pressure or temperature variations in flow rates?

No, the conversion is strictly volumetric and time-based and does not factor in pressure or temperature effects on gas volumes.

Browser-based and simple to use without needing formulas.
Provides instant results for plumbing, HVAC, and gas flow applications.

Examples

5 gallon (US)/minute equals 0.401041667 hundred-cubic foot/hour.
10 gallon (US)/minute converts to 0.802083333 hundred-cubic foot/hour.

Common Use Cases

Determining pump or sprinkler system capacities in plumbing.
Evaluating HVAC water flow and cooling tower circulation rates.
Measuring fuel transfer rates in automotive or small-engine contexts.
Reporting residential natural gas consumption or small gas flow rates.
Sizing pilot lines, burners, or process gas supplies.
Converting ventilation and exhaust flow rates in imperial units.

Tips & Best Practices

Confirm that the flow relates to the correct fluid type (liquid vs. gas) before converting.
Use the conversion for volumetric comparisons, not for precise gas flow under variable pressure or temperature.
Verify unit selections match your measurement context in plumbing, HVAC, or gas metering.

Limitations

Conversion assumes volumetric equivalence without accounting for fluid density or compressibility.
Pressure and temperature effects on gas volume are not considered.
The units measure different fluid types, limiting direct physical equivalence.
