Cubic Centimeters per second to Fluid Ounces per second conversion

How to convert cubic centimeters per second to fluid ounces per second?

To convert cubic centimeters per second (cc/s) to fluid ounces per second (fl oz/s), you need to know the conversion factor between cubic centimeters and fluid ounces.

1 U.S. fluid ounce is approximately 29.5735 cubic centimeters.

So to convert 1 cc/s to fl oz/s, you can use this conversion factor:

$1 \text{ cc/s} \times \left(\frac{1 \text{ fl oz}}{29.5735 \text{ cc}}\right) = \frac{1}{29.5735} \text{ fl oz/s} \approx 0.033814 \text{ fl oz/s}$

Therefore, 1 cubic centimeter per second is approximately equal to 0.033814 fluid ounces per second.

Real World Examples of Cubic Centimeters per Second

1. Medical Infusion Pumps:

   • Infusion pumps used in hospitals often dispense medication at specific rates. A typical infusion rate might be around 10 to 20 cc/s depending on the medication and the patient's requirements.

2. Automotive Fuel Injectors:

   • Fuel injectors in cars are designed to deliver a precise amount of fuel into the engine. An injector might deliver fuel at a rate of about 100 to 200 cc/s when the engine is at full throttle.

3. Irrigation Systems:

   • Drip irrigation systems for gardens might deliver water at rates ranging from 50 to 200 cc/s per emitter, depending on the requirements of the plants and the design of the system.

4. Laboratory Experiments:

   • In scientific research, particularly in chemistry and biology laboratories, reagents and solutions might be dispensed at rates of around 1 to 5 cc/s to ensure precision and control during experiments.

Formula Recap

To summarize, the essential formula for converting from cubic centimeters per second to fluid ounces per second is:

$\text{Volume Flow Rate in fl oz/s} = \text{Volume Flow Rate in cc/s} \times \frac{1 \text{ fl oz}}{29.5735 \text{ cc}}$

By applying this formula, you can easily convert any volume flow rate from cubic centimeters per second to fluid ounces per second.
