FAQ
What is the conversion factor from cfs to m³/hr?
1 cfs equals 101.9406 m³/hr. To convert, multiply the value in cubic feet per second by 101.9406.
How do I convert 1 cfs to m³/hr?
1 cfs = 101.941 m³/hr. For any value, multiply by 101.9406.
How do I convert m³/hr back to cfs?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.00980963. So 1 m³/hr = 0.00980963 cfs.
When would I need to convert cubic foot per second to cubic metre 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 m³/hr 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).
