What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms flow rate values from ounce (UK) per second to hundred-cubic foot per minute. It is designed to assist users in converting small-volume liquid flow rates into larger air or gas volumetric flow rates relevant to industries such as beverage service, laboratory dosing, and HVAC system design.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the flow value in ounce (UK)/second into the input field
-
Select ounce (UK)/second as the input unit if not preselected
-
Choose hundred-cubic foot/minute as the output unit
-
Click the convert button to see the equivalent flow rate
-
Review the result for applications in industrial, laboratory, or HVAC contexts
Key Features
-
Converts volumetric flow rate from ounce (UK)/second to hundred-cubic foot/minute
-
Supports applications in beverage dispensing, pharmaceutical dosing, and ventilation systems
-
Uses a precise conversion rate of 1 ounce (UK)/second = 0.0006020387 hundred-cubic foot/minute
-
Online and easy to use without software installation
-
Bridges measurements for both liquid and gas flow scenarios
Examples
-
10 ounce (UK)/second converts to 0.006020387 hundred-cubic foot/minute
-
50 ounce (UK)/second converts to 0.030101935 hundred-cubic foot/minute
Common Use Cases
-
Setting small flow rates for dispensers or taps in beverage industries
-
Measuring dosing rates in pharmaceutical and laboratory liquid handling
-
Specifying airflow rates for HVAC systems and industrial ventilation
-
Sizing blowers and ductwork for process ventilation
-
Monitoring microfluidic and leak rates in engineering tests
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure units are correctly selected before converting to avoid errors
-
Use the tool to bridge liquid volume flow to large-scale gas flow measurements
-
Apply conversions with consideration of consistent temperature and pressure conditions
-
Keep in mind the conversion relates different media and is for volumetric equivalence
-
Use alongside other measurement data when density or compressibility may affect results
Limitations
-
Measures fundamentally different fluids: liquid ounces versus bulk air volume
-
Conversion accuracy relies on standard conditions for temperature and pressure
-
Does not account for fluid density or compressibility differences
-
Intended for volumetric flow equivalencies rather than direct fluid comparisons
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does 1 ounce (UK)/second represent in volumetric terms?
-
One ounce (UK)/second equals the flow of one imperial fluid ounce, or 28.4130625 millilitres, passing a point every second.
-
Where is hundred-cubic foot/minute commonly used?
-
It is mainly used to measure bulk air or gas flow in ventilation, HVAC, and industrial systems.
-
Can I directly compare liquid and gas flow rates using this conversion?
-
The conversion provides volumetric flow equivalence but does not account for differences in fluid density or compressibility.
Key Terminology
-
Ounce (UK)/second
-
A volumetric flow unit representing the number of imperial fluid ounces passing a point per second.
-
Hundred-cubic foot/minute
-
A volumetric flow unit equal to 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point every minute, typically used for air or gas.
-
Volumetric flow rate
-
The volume of fluid passing through a point per unit of time.
