What does milliliter per hour measure?

Milliliter per hour is a volumetric flow rate unit indicating how many milliliters of fluid pass per hour, often used for precise low flow measurements.

Where is cubic foot per minute commonly used?

Cubic foot per minute measures volumetric flow in larger scale air volume applications such as HVAC systems, ventilation, and pneumatic equipment.

Can I directly compare milliliter/hour and cubic foot/minute values?

Because these units operate on very different scales and physical states, they should be compared or combined cautiously with consideration of their specific applications.

What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to change flow rate measurements from milliliters per hour to cubic feet per minute. It is designed to help users compare slow, precise liquid flow rates with larger volumetric air flows typically used in engineering and ventilation.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the value in milliliters per hour that you want to convert
Select milliliter/hour as the input unit and cubic foot/minute as the output unit
Click the convert button to get the equivalent flow rate in cubic foot per minute
Use the conversion rate provided to understand the relationship between the two units

Key Features

Converts volumetric flow units between milliliter/hour and cubic foot/minute
Supports precise low flow rate conversions commonly used in medical and laboratory settings
Useful for multidisciplinary applications including HVAC design and pneumatic system measurements
Provides clear examples demonstrating the conversion process

Examples

1000 milliliter/hour equals approximately 0.0005886 cubic foot/minute
500 milliliter/hour equals approximately 0.0002943 cubic foot/minute

Common Use Cases

Setting infusion pump flow rates for accurate drug delivery in clinical care
Controlling reagent addition rates in laboratory experiments and microreactors
Designing HVAC ventilation systems with proper airflow measurements
Measuring compressed air delivery for pneumatic tools and industrial equipment
Managing chemical dosing and tracer injection in environmental monitoring

Tips & Best Practices

Always verify the appropriateness of using milliliter/hour or cubic foot/minute based on flow magnitude
Use this conversion for comparing very slow liquid flows with larger air volume flows carefully
Refer to provided examples to ensure correct application of the conversion factor
Consider the differences in scales when integrating data from different unit systems

Limitations

The units represent very different flow magnitudes; milliliter/hour suits low liquid flows, cubic foot/minute suits larger gas flows
Precision should be carefully considered when converting due to scale differences
Not suitable for direct comparison without context as physical states (liquid vs gas) differ

Key Terminology

Milliliter/hour [mL/h]: A measure of volumetric flow rate representing one milliliter of fluid passing per hour, used for precise, low-rate flow such as medical infusions.
Cubic foot/minute [ft³/min]: A volume flow rate indicating one cubic foot of fluid (typically air) passing a point each minute, common in ventilation and HVAC systems.
