To convert cubic feet per minute (CFM) to liters per minute (L/min), you need to use the conversion factor between cubic feet and liters. Here’s the step-by-step process:
1 cubic foot = 28.3168 liters
Therefore, to convert from CFM to L/min, you multiply the flow rate in CFM by 28.3168.
Let's convert 1 CFM to L/min:
1 CFM * 28.3168 L/min = 28.3168 L/min
So, 1 cubic foot per minute is equal to 28.3168 liters per minute.
5 CFM to L/min: 5 CFM * 28.3168 L/min = 141.584 L/min
10 CFM to L/min: 10 CFM * 28.3168 L/min = 283.168 L/min
20 CFM to L/min: 20 CFM * 28.3168 L/min = 566.336 L/min
50 CFM to L/min: 50 CFM * 28.3168 L/min = 1415.84 L/min
Home HVAC Systems: A typical home HVAC system might have a blower fan with a capacity of about 400 CFM.
Bathroom Exhaust Fan: A bathroom exhaust fan might be rated at 50 CFM.
Industrial Air Compressors: Large industrial air compressors can have capacities around 1000 CFM.
Computer Cooling System: A high-performance computer cooling fan could be rated at around 70 CFM.
By using these conversions, you can translate flow rates from cubic feet per minute to liters per minute, making it easier to compare and understand specifications in different measurement units.
See below section for step by step unit conversion with formulas and explanations. Please refer to the table below for a list of all the Litres per minute to other unit conversions.
Cubic feet per minute measures amount of fluid passes though a cross-sectional area. In short, it measures flow rate.
Flow rate can be calculated using following formula. Please note that is in minutes and 's unit of measure is ft^3/minute.
- Flow rate
- Volume (Cubic feet)
- Time in minutes
- Cross-sectional area
- Distance the fluid traveled during the time
For more in-depth understanding of the flow rate read Flow Rate and Its Relation to Velocity from LibreTexts Physics website.
