What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms flow rates from ounce (UK)/hour, a mass flow unit for very low quantities, into hundred-cubic foot/day, a volumetric flow unit commonly used in gas and liquid engineering applications.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in ounce (UK)/hour you want to convert
-
Select ounce (UK)/hour as the input unit and hundred-cubic foot/day as the output unit
-
Click the convert button to receive the equivalent volumetric flow rate
-
Use the result to understand or plan flow processes in engineering or manufacturing
Key Features
-
Converts between mass flow (oz (UK)/h) and volumetric flow (hundred-cubic foot/day)
-
Suitable for very low flow rates and precise dosing
-
Browser-based and simple interface for quick conversions
-
Helps relate laboratory measurements to industrial and utility scales
Examples
-
10 oz (UK)/h converts to 0.002408155 hundred-cubic foot/day
-
50 oz (UK)/h converts to 0.012040775 hundred-cubic foot/day
Common Use Cases
-
Low-rate dosing of laboratory reagents and chemicals with precision pumps
-
Calibration of small metering and drip-feed devices in pharmaceutical manufacturing
-
Monitoring and reporting of small natural gas production or pipeline flow rates
-
Engineering calculations for groundwater pumping and wastewater treatment
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure fluid density remains consistent when interpreting conversions
-
Consider the physical meaning differences between mass and volume flow units
-
Use appropriate instrumentation suitable for very small flow measurements
-
Apply conversion results to assist in cross-disciplinary process planning
Limitations
-
Conversion assumes fluid density is constant and appropriate for the relation
-
Units represent different physical quantities—mass flow versus volumetric flow
-
Fluid properties must be known for accurate conversions
-
Small flow rates may suffer from measurement uncertainty and instrument constraints
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does ounce (UK)/hour measure?
-
It measures a mass flow rate where one UK ounce passes per hour, often used for very low mass throughput.
-
What is a hundred-cubic foot/day used for?
-
This unit expresses volumetric flow rates, such as small continuous flows of gases or liquids in engineering and utility settings.
-
Can I convert between mass and volumetric flow rates directly?
-
Direct conversion requires assuming constant fluid density and knowing fluid properties since mass and volume are different physical quantities.
Key Terminology
-
Ounce (UK)/hour
-
A unit of mass flow indicating the passage of one UK avoirdupois ounce per hour.
-
Hundred-cubic foot/day
-
A volumetric flow unit representing 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point in one day.
-
Mass flow rate
-
The measure of mass passing through a system per unit of time.
-
Volumetric flow rate
-
The measure of fluid volume passing through a system per unit of time.
