FAQ

What is the conversion factor from mL/min to cfs?
1 mL/min equals 5.885778e-7 cfs. To convert, multiply the value in millilitres per minute by 5.885778e-7.
How do I convert 1 mL/min to cfs?
1 mL/min = 5.88578e-7 cfs. For any value, multiply by 5.885778e-7.
How do I convert cfs back to mL/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1699011. So 1 cfs = 1.69901e+6 mL/min.
When would I need to convert millilitre per minute to cubic foot 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. mL/min to cfs 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).
