What does hundred-cubic foot/day measure?

It measures a volume flow rate equal to 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point in one day, commonly used for small continuous gas or liquid flows.

When should I use acre-foot/hour as a unit?

Acre-foot/hour is suited for measuring large water volumes passing per hour, such as reservoir releases, irrigation flows, and pumping rates in water resource projects.

Can this converter handle variable flow measurements?

The tool is designed for steady continuous flows and may not accurately represent highly variable or intermittent flow rates.

Key Terminology

Hundred-cubic foot/day: A volumetric flow rate of 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point in one day, often used in gas and wastewater engineering.
Acre-foot/hour: A volumetric flow rate equal to one acre-foot (43,560 ft³) of water moving per hour, used in water resource management.
Volumetric flow rate: The measure of volume of fluid passing a point per unit of time.
Conversion rate: The factor used to translate between hundred-cubic foot/day and acre-foot/hour as 1 hundred-cubic foot/day equals 0.0000956531 acre-foot/hour.
