What Is This Tool?
This unit converter translates flow rates from ounce per hour, a volume or mass-based measure, to milliliter per hour, a precise volumetric flow unit widely used in medical and laboratory dosing.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in ounce/hour you wish to convert.
-
Select ounce/hour as the input unit and milliliter/hour as the output unit.
-
Click convert to obtain the flow rate in milliliter/hour.
Key Features
-
Converts ounce/hour (oz/h) volumetric flow rates to milliliter/hour (mL/h).
-
Supports applications in healthcare, laboratories, and process control.
-
Browser-based and easy to use without installation.
Examples
-
2 oz/h converts to 59.147059125 mL/h
-
0.5 oz/h converts to 14.78676478125 mL/h
Common Use Cases
-
Setting infusion pump rates for precise fluid delivery in healthcare.
-
Controlling reagent or solvent flow in laboratory experiments.
-
Measuring beverage dispensing rates in bar or fountain equipment.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure you are converting fluid ounce volumes, not mass ounces, unless density is known.
-
Use this tool for volumetric flow rate conversions to maintain accuracy.
-
Verify measuring devices to ensure consistent input data.
Limitations
-
The conversion assumes fluid ounces, not mass ounces; density data is needed for mass conversions.
-
Device precision and fluid properties like viscosity can affect results.
-
This tool is intended for volumetric flow rates only, not mass flow rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can I use this converter for mass ounces to milliliters?
-
No, this conversion is based on fluid ounce volume. Mass ounces require additional density information to convert accurately.
Key Terminology
-
Ounce/hour [oz/h]
-
Flow rate expressing quantity transferred per hour, typically volumetric fluid ounces in this context.
-
Milliliter/hour [mL/h]
-
Unit of volumetric flow indicating milliliters dispensed or transported each hour.
-
Volumetric flow rate
-
Measurement of the volume of fluid transferred per unit time.
