Common Use Cases
-
Reporting small natural gas well or distribution pipeline production rates.
-
Measuring utility-scale gas consumption or small metered flow rates.
-
Calculating groundwater pump or wastewater influent rates.
-
Specifying fuel consumption of small engines and portable generators.
-
Setting dosing rates for chemical or fertilizer metering pumps.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure measurements represent constant flow conditions for accurate conversion.
-
Use this tool to compare daily gas flow rates with hourly liquid flow values.
-
Apply conversions carefully in engineering scenarios requiring precise dosing or monitoring.
-
Consider flow variability factors outside the scope of this basic conversion.
Limitations
-
The conversion assumes steady flow and does not consider pressure or temperature effects.
-
Fluid density variations are not accounted for in the conversion rate.
-
Results are not suitable for evaluating dynamic or transient flow conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does 1 hundred-cubic foot/day represent?
-
It is the volumetric flow of 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point in one day, often used for small continuous gas or liquid flows.
-
Why convert hundred-cubic foot/day to liter/hour?
-
Converting helps express daily gas flows as hourly liquid flows for detailed engineering or chemical dosing applications.
-
Does this conversion consider pressure or temperature?
-
No, this conversion assumes constant flow and does not factor in pressure, temperature, or fluid density variations.
Key Terminology
-
Hundred-cubic foot/day
-
A volumetric flow rate of 100 cubic feet per day, used for reporting small gas or liquid flow rates.
-
Liter/hour [L/h]
-
