What does hundred-cubic foot per day measure?

It measures the volume flow rate of fluid, equal to 100 cubic feet passing a point per day, commonly for gas or liquid flows.

Why use acre-foot per year for flow measurement?

Acre-foot per year expresses larger-scale water volumes over a year, useful in water resources planning and allocation.

Can this conversion be used for intermittent flows?

The tool assumes steady flow; intermittent or variable flows require averaging before conversion for accuracy.

Examples

Convert 5 hundred-cubic foot/day: 5 × 0.8379213499 = 4.1896067495 acre-foot/year.
Convert 10 hundred-cubic foot/day: 10 × 0.8379213499 = 8.379213499 acre-foot/year.

Common Use Cases

Reporting small natural gas well or pipeline production flow rates.
Estimating residential or commercial gas consumption volumes.
Calculating groundwater pump or wastewater influent flow rates.
Water-resources planning including reservoir yield or release rates.
Allocating surface water and irrigation water rights for agriculture.
Municipal and regional supply and demand water accounting.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure flow is steady to achieve accurate conversion results.
Consider fluid properties differences when converting between gas and water contexts.
Use this conversion for long-term volumetric flow planning rather than short-term fluctuations.
Double-check units before converting to avoid errors in calculations.
Apply conversion results for strategic water resource and gas flow management.

Limitations

Assumes continuous and steady flow conditions; averaged results may be needed for variable flows.
Conversion does not account for differences in fluid properties between sources.
Time scale differences between daily and yearly units could cause approximations in dynamic systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does hundred-cubic foot per day measure?: It measures the volume flow rate of fluid, equal to 100 cubic feet passing a point per day, commonly for gas or liquid flows.
Why use acre-foot per year for flow measurement?: Acre-foot per year expresses larger-scale water volumes over a year, useful in water resources planning and allocation.

Key Terminology

Hundred-cubic foot/day: A volumetric flow rate equivalent to 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point in one day, commonly used for small flow rates of gases or liquids.
Acre-foot/year [ac*ft/y]: The flow rate where one acre-foot of volume is delivered or used over a period of one year; one acre-foot equals the volume covering one acre to a depth of one foot.
