  2. Volumetric flow rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_flow_rate

    The SI unit is cubic metres per second (m 3 /s). Another unit used is standard cubic centimetres per minute (SCCM). In US customary units and imperial units, volumetric flow rate is often expressed as cubic feet per second (ft 3 /s) or gallons per minute (either US or imperial definitions).

  3. Cubic foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_foot

    The IEEE symbol for the cubic foot per second is ft 3 /s. [1] The following other abbreviations are also sometimes used: ft 3 /sec; cu ft/s; cfs or CFS; cusec; second-feet; The flow or discharge of rivers, i.e., the volume of water passing a location per unit of time, is commonly expressed in units of cubic feet per second or cubic metres per second.

  4. List of rivers by discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rivers_by_discharge

    Here, only those rivers whose discharge is more than 2,000 m 3 /s (71,000 cu ft/s) are shown. It can be thought of as a list of the biggest rivers on Earth, measured by a specific metric. For context, the volume of an Olympic-size swimming pool is 2,500 m 3 (88,000 cu ft). The average flow rate at the mouth of the Amazon is sufficient to fill ...

  5. Acre-foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acre-foot

    As the name suggests, an acre-foot is defined as the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot.. Since an acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (i.e. 66 ft × 660 ft or 20.12 m × 201.17 m), an acre-foot is 43,560 cubic feet (1,233.5 m 3).

  6. Liquid-to-gas ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-to-gas_ratio

    Most wet scrubbers used for particulate control operate with liquid-to-gas ratios in the range of 4 to 20 gallons per 1,000 actual cubic foot (0.5 to 3 litres per actual cubic metre). Depending on scrubber design, a minimum volume of liquid is required to "wet" the scrubber internals and create sufficient collection targets.

  7. Gallon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallon

    The wine gallon, which some sources relate to the volume occupied by eight medieval merchant pounds of wine, was at one time defined as the volume of a cylinder 6 inches deep and 7 inches in diameter, i.e. 6 in × (⁠3 + 1 / 2 ⁠ in) 2 × π ≈ 230.907 06 cubic inches.
