Converting from Gallon (US, liq.) per minute (GPM) to Cubic Foot per Hour (ft³/h)

What is Gallon (US, liq.) per minute (GPM)

Gallons per minute (GPM) is a unit of flow rate commonly used to measure the volume of liquid flowing through a pipe or pump in one minute. It is widely used in industries such as plumbing, agriculture, and chemical processing.

What is Cubic Foot per Hour (ft³/h)

Cubic foot per hour (ft³/h) is another unit of flow rate that measures the volume of gas or liquid passing through a specific point in a system in one hour. This unit is often used in air conditioning, ventilation, and gas piping applications.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between GPM and ft³/h are as follows:

1. To convert GPM to ft³/h: GPM×8.020833=ft³/h

2. To convert ft³/h to GPM: ft³/h×0.1246753=GPM

Examples

1. Converting 5 GPM to ft³/h: 5×8.020833=40.10417 ft³/h

2. Converting 8 GPM to ft³/h: 8×8.020833=64.16667 ft³/h

3. Converting 15 ft³/h to GPM: 15×0.1246753=1.87013 GPM

Performing conversions between GPM and ft³/h is essential in various industries to ensure accurate measurements and efficient operations. Whether you are designing a plumbing system or analyzing air flow rates, understanding these conversion formulas can help you get the job done effectively.
