What Is This Tool?
This converter allows you to transform flow rate values from milliliters per hour, a unit for very low liquid flow, into hundred-cubic foot per minute, a unit used for large-scale gas flow. It supports diverse applications from precise medical dosing to industrial ventilation.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in milliliter per hour you want to convert

Key Features
-
Converts between milliliter per hour and hundred-cubic foot per minute units
-
Browser-based and easy to use without installation
-
Supports flow rate conversions for liquids and gases across different scale ranges
Examples
-
10 mL/h equals 5.8857777868903e-8 hundred-cubic foot/minute
-
100 mL/h equals 5.8857777868903e-7 hundred-cubic foot/minute
Common Use Cases
-
Setting infusion pump rates in clinical environments for precise fluid delivery
-
Controlling reagent dosing in laboratory and analytical experiments
-
Sizing ventilation and HVAC systems in industrial or large building applications
Tips & Best Practices
-
Use this tool for translating between very low liquid flow rates and high volume gas flow units
-
Consider fluid properties when interpreting conversions between liquid and gas flow units
-
Apply conversions carefully in process control scenarios to ensure correct flow integration
Limitations
-
Direct conversion may be impractical due to different fluid properties and flow regimes
-
Milliliter/hour measures small liquid flows while hundred-cubic foot/minute measures large gaseous flows
-
The conversion factor is extremely small, reflecting vastly different unit scales
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does milliliter per hour measure?
-
It measures the volume of liquid flowing each hour, often used for very low, continuous flow rates like medical infusions and laboratory dosing.
-
Where is hundred-cubic foot per minute commonly used?
-
This unit quantifies bulk air or gas flow in HVAC, ventilation, and various industrial process applications.
-
Can I directly convert liquid flow rates into gas flow rates accurately?
-
Direct conversions can be impractical without accounting for fluid density and phase differences because these units represent vastly different flow conditions.
Key Terminology
-
Milliliter per hour (mL/h)
-
A unit that quantifies a small volume of liquid flowing each hour, often for precise dosing in medical and laboratory contexts.
-
Hundred-cubic foot per minute
-
A unit representing a large volume of gas flowing per minute, used in ventilation and industrial air flow measurements.
-
Volumetric flow rate
-
A measure of the volume of fluid passing through a point per unit time.
