Key Terminology
-
Ounce/hour [oz/h]
-
A flow rate showing quantity delivered per hour, representing either fluid or mass ounces depending on context.
-
Liter/second [L/s]
-
A volumetric flow rate unit indicating one litre passing through a cross-section every second.
-
Volumetric Flow Rate
-
Measurement of volume of fluid passing a point per unit time.
