Fluid Ounces per minute to Fluid Ounces per hour conversion

What is fluid ounces per minute?

Fluid ounces per minute (fl oz/min) is a unit of measurement that represents the volume of a liquid flowing or being dispensed over time. In other words, it's a measure of how many fluid ounces are contained in one minute.

For example, if you have a bottle that flows 16 fl oz of juice every 2 minutes, its flow rate would be 8 fl oz/min (since 16 ÷ 2 = 8).

Fluid ounces per minute is commonly used to express the flow rates of various liquids, such as:

1. Beverages (juice, water, soda)
2. Medications
3. Chemicals and solvents
4. Fuels and oils

To give you a better idea, here are some everyday examples of fluid ounces per minute:

• A faucet with a moderate flow rate might dispense around 5-10 fl oz/min.
• A soda fountain machine could deliver about 20-30 fl oz/min.
• Some medical infusion pumps can deliver fluids at rates up to 100-200 fl oz/min.

Now, keep in mind that fluid ounces per minute is just one of many units used to measure flow rates. Other common units include cubic centimeters per minute (cm³/min), liters per minute (L/min), and gallons per hour (gal/h).

What is fluid ounces per hour?

Fluid ounces (fl oz) are a unit of volume, while hours are a unit of time.

To put it simply, "fluid ounces per hour" (fz/h or fl oz/h) is a measure of the rate at which something is being poured out or dispensed in fluid ounces over a period of one hour.

For example:

• If you're drinking water from a bottle that's being refilled at a rate of 16 fluid ounces every hour, the flow rate would be 16 fl oz/h.
• If you're filling a tank with juice at a rate of 32 fluid ounces per hour, the fill rate would be 32 fl oz/h.

Fluid ounces per hour is often used to measure the flow rates of liquids in industrial or commercial settings, such as bottling plants, breweries, or food processing facilities.
