FAQ
What is the conversion factor from ft³/min to gpm (US)?
1 ft³/min equals 7.480519 gpm (US). To convert, multiply the value in cubic feet per minute by 7.480519.
How do I convert 1 ft³/min to gpm (US)?
1 ft³/min = 7.48052 gpm (US). For any value, multiply by 7.480519.
How do I convert gpm (US) back to ft³/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.1336806. So 1 gpm (US) = 0.133681 ft³/min.
When would I need to convert cubic foot per minute to US gallon per minute?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. ft³/min to gpm (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).
