FAQ
What is the conversion factor from gpm (US) to ft³/hr?
1 gpm (US) equals 8.020833 ft³/hr. To convert, multiply the value in US gallons per minute by 8.020833.
How do I convert 1 gpm (US) to ft³/hr?
1 gpm (US) = 8.02083 ft³/hr. For any value, multiply by 8.020833.
How do I convert ft³/hr back to gpm (US)?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.1246753. So 1 ft³/hr = 0.124675 gpm (US).
When would I need to convert US gallon per minute to cubic foot 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. gpm (US) to ft³/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).
