How to convert cubic yards per minute to gallons per hour?

To convert cubic yards per minute (yd³/min) to gallons per hour (gal/hr), you need to follow these steps:

  1. Convert cubic yards to cubic feet: There are 27 cubic feet in 1 cubic yard.
  2. Convert cubic feet to gallons: There are 7.48052 gallons in 1 cubic foot.
  3. Convert minutes to hours: There are 60 minutes in 1 hour.

Let's break this down step by step to convert 1 cubic yard per minute (yd³/min) to gallons per hour (gal/hr).

Step-by-Step Conversion

  1. Convert Cubic Yards to Cubic Feet: 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet So, 1 yd³/min = 27 ft³/min

  2. Convert Cubic Feet to Gallons: 1 cubic foot = 7.48052 gallons So, 27 ft³/min * 7.48052 gal/ft³ = 201.97392 gal/min

  3. Convert Minutes to Hours: There are 60 minutes in an hour. So, 201.97392 gal/min * 60 min/hr = 12118.4352 gal/hr

Therefore, 1 cubic yard per minute is equivalent to approximately 12118.4352 gallons per hour.

Real-World Examples

Let's look at different quantities of cubic yards per minute and their corresponding values in gallons per hour.

  1. 2 Cubic Yards per Minute: 2 yd³/min = 2 * 12118.4352 gal/hr = 24236.8704 gal/hr

  2. 0.5 Cubic Yards per Minute: 0.5 yd³/min = 0.5 * 12118.4352 gal/hr = 6059.2176 gal/hr

  3. 5 Cubic Yards per Minute: 5 yd³/min = 5 * 12118.4352 gal/hr = 60592.176 gal/hr

  4. 10 Cubic Yards per Minute: 10 yd³/min = 10 * 12118.4352 gal/hr = 121184.352 gal/hr

  5. 0.1 Cubic Yards per Minute: 0.1 yd³/min = 0.1 * 12118.4352 gal/hr = 1211.84352 gal/hr

Summary

To sum up, the conversion from cubic yards per minute to gallons per hour involves multiplying by 12118.4352, as 1 cubic yard per minute is equivalent to approximately 12118.4352 gallons per hour. By following this method, you can convert any rate in cubic yards per minute to gallons per hour for practical applications, such as water flow rates in engineering, fluid dynamics, and environmental studies.

What is cubic yards per minute?

A unit of measurement!

Cubic yards per minute (CY/min) is a unit of flow rate or volumetric flow rate.

It represents the volume of material that flows through a given area in one minute, measured in cubic yards (yd³).

To break it down:

  • Cubic yard: a unit of volume equal to a cube with sides 1 yard long
  • Per minute: the time frame over which the volume is being measured

So, if something is flowing at a rate of 2 CY/min, that means 2 cubic yards of material are passing through the given area in one minute.

Cubic yards per minute is often used to measure the flow rates of materials such as sand, gravel, or aggregate in construction and industrial applications.

What is Gallons per hour?

Gallons per hour 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 tt is in hours and QQ's unit of measure is gal/hour

Q=Vt=AdtQ = \frac{V}{t} = \frac{A*d}{t}

QQ - Flow rate
VV - Volume (Gallons)
tt - Time in hours AA - Cross-sectional area
dd - Distance the fluid traveled during the time tt

For more in-depth understanding of the flow rate read Flow Rate and Its Relation to Velocity from LibreTexts Physics website.
