Question 1

How do you convert m³/s to GPM?

Accepted Answer

Multiply m³/s by 15,850.3. Example: 0.1 m³/s = 1585 GPM.

Question 2

What is m³/s used for?

Accepted Answer

Large-scale water flow: rivers, industrial processes, large pumping stations, and hydroelectric plants.

Question 3

How does pipe diameter affect flow rate?

Accepted Answer

Flow rate is proportional to the square of diameter. Doubling pipe diameter quadruples potential flow rate at the same pressure.

Question 4

What's the difference between volume and mass flow rate?

Accepted Answer

Volume flow (gallons/min) ignores fluid density. Mass flow (kg/s) accounts for density, important when density changes with temperature or pressure.
