Cubic inches per second to Cubic Millimeters per second conversion

How to convert cubic inches per second to cubic millimeters per second?

Converting cubic inches per second (in³/s) to cubic millimeters per second (mm³/s) involves understanding the relationship between inches and millimeters:

1 inch = 25.4 millimeters

To convert cubic inches to cubic millimeters, we need to cube the conversion factor:

1 in³ = (25.4 mm)³ = 25.4 * 25.4 * 25.4 mm³ 1 in³ = 16,387.064 mm³

Therefore, 1 cubic inch per second (in³/s) is equal to 16,387.064 cubic millimeters per second (mm³/s).

Calculation:

$1 \text{ in³/s} = 1 \text{ in³} \times 16,387.064 \text{ mm³/in³} = 16,387.064 \text{ mm³/s}$

Examples of Real World Quantities:

• 0.5 in³/s (half of 1 cubic inch per second): $0.5 \text{ in³/s} = 0.5 \times 16,387.064 \text{ mm³/s} = 8,193.532 \text{ mm³/s}$

• 2 in³/s (double 1 cubic inch per second): $2 \text{ in³/s} = 2 \times 16,387.064 \text{ mm³/s} = 32,774.128 \text{ mm³/s}$

• 10 in³/s: $10 \text{ in³/s} = 10 \times 16,387.064 \text{ mm³/s} = 163,870.64 \text{ mm³/s}$

Real World Context:

• Automotive applications: For example, fuel injectors in a car engine might deliver fuel at a flow rate of a few cubic inches per second.

• Hydraulic systems: Industrial hydraulic systems may use oil flow rates in cubic inches per second to specify the movement of pistons or other components.

• Medical devices: Syringe pumps used in medical settings may dispense medication at precise rates measured in cubic inches (or millimeters) per second for controlled drug delivery.

Understanding these conversions helps in various engineering, scientific, and everyday applications where precise measurement and conversion of flow rates are critical.
