What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms volumetric flow rates from hundred-cubic foot per minute, a unit typically used to measure large bulk air or gas flows in HVAC and industrial applications, into ounce (UK) per second, which measures smaller liquid flow rates in contexts like beverage dispensing and laboratory dosing.

Common Use Cases
-
Specifying ventilation system capacities in large buildings using hundred-cubic foot/minute.
-
Measuring precise dosing or drip rates in pharmaceutical and laboratory settings in ounce (UK)/second.
-
Sizing industrial blowers and ductwork while referencing liquid flow rates for compatibility.
-
Monitoring small flow rates for beverage dispensing or brewery applications.
-
Detecting microfluidic flows or small leaks in engineering tests.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure fluid consistency when converting between gas and liquid flow units.
-
Use the tool for compatible fluids to maintain accuracy in conversions.
-
Calibrate measurement devices to reduce errors caused by environmental factors.
-
Interpret conversion results within the context of the fluid's properties and phase.
-
Use the conversion to bridge measurements across different scales and units.
Limitations
-
Converting between bulk air/gas flow and liquid volume flow assumes consistent fluid characteristics.
-
Results may not accurately reflect flow behavior if fluid compressibility or phase varies.
-
Measurement precision depends on instrument calibration and environmental influences.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can this tool convert any fluid's flow rate between these units?
-
The tool converts volumetric flow rates assuming fluid consistency; it may not accurately represent flows with different phases or compressibility.
-
What industries benefit most from this conversion?
-
Industries such as HVAC design, industrial ventilation, breweries, pharmaceuticals, labs, and microfluidics engineering use this conversion.
-
Is calibration important for accurate conversion?
-
Yes, precision depends on calibration and environmental conditions affecting the volumetric flow measurement.
Key Terminology
-
Hundred-cubic foot/minute
-
A volumetric flow rate unit equal to 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point each minute, commonly used for bulk air or gas flow.
-
Ounce (UK)/second
-
A volumetric flow rate unit representing the number of imperial fluid ounces passing a point per second; one UK fluid ounce equals 28.4130625 millilitres.
-
Volumetric Flow Rate
-
The volume of fluid passing through a point per unit time.
