FAQ
What is the conversion factor from ft³/min to mL/s?
1 ft³/min equals 471.9474 mL/s. To convert, multiply the value in cubic feet per minute by 471.9474.
How do I convert 1 ft³/min to mL/s?
1 ft³/min = 471.947 mL/s. For any value, multiply by 471.9474.
How do I convert mL/s back to ft³/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.00211888. So 1 mL/s = 0.00211888 ft³/min.
When would I need to convert cubic foot per minute to millilitre per second?
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 mL/s 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).
