FAQ

What is the conversion factor from mL/min to cfm?
1 mL/min equals 3.531467e-5 cfm. To convert, multiply the value in millilitres per minute by 3.531467e-5.
How do I convert 1 mL/min to cfm?
1 mL/min = 3.53147e-5 cfm. For any value, multiply by 3.531467e-5.
How do I convert cfm back to mL/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 28316.85. So 1 cfm = 28316.8 mL/min.
When would I need to convert millilitre per minute to cubic foot 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. mL/min to cfm is a frequently needed conversion for flow datasheet preparation.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. Both mL/min and cfm are defined by exact SI relationships, so the displayed factor is exact (any rounding shown is only for display).
