-
Depends on appropriate instrumentation and consistent measurement protocols.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does hundred-cubic foot/day measure?
-
It measures the flow rate of 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point within one day, used for small-scale gas or liquid flows.
-
Why convert hundred-cubic foot/day to cubic foot/hour?
-
Conversion to cubic foot/hour helps interpret flow rates on a shorter time scale, useful for monitoring, control, and equipment sizing.
-
Can this conversion be used for liquids and gases?
-
Yes, it applies to volumetric flow rates of both liquids and gases in various engineering and industrial contexts.
