FAQ
What is the conversion factor from cfs to gph (US)?
1 cfs equals 26929.87 gph (US). To convert, multiply the value in cubic feet per second by 26929.87.
How do I convert 1 cfs to gph (US)?
1 cfs = 26929.9 gph (US). For any value, multiply by 26929.87.
How do I convert gph (US) back to cfs?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 3.713349e-5. So 1 gph (US) = 3.71335e-5 cfs.
When would I need to convert cubic foot per second to US gallon per hour?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. cfs to gph (US) is a frequently needed conversion for flow datasheet preparation.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
