Convert Acre-feet per hour to US pints per second
Convert Acre-feet per hour (ac-ft/h) to US pints per second (pt/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
pt/s = ac-ft/h × 724.1142857
About Acre-feet per hour
The acre-foot per hour (ac-ft/h) equals 1233.48183754752/3600 ≈ 0.34263 m³/s, standard for sizing irrigation district delivery canals, reservoir outflow scheduling, and aquifer recharge basin calculations in the western US. The US Bureau of Reclamation uses ac-ft/h for canal operational planning; a 1 000-acre farm irrigating with 0.5 in/h rain-equivalent receives ≈41 ac-ft/h. 1 ac-ft/h ≈ 0.34263 m³/s.
About US pints per second
The US pint per second (pt/s) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/8 ≈ 4.732×10⁻⁴ m³/s, used in US food-filling equipment rated in pints-per-second throughput. High-speed dairy-packaging lines filling 16 oz (1 pt) cartons can achieve 10-20 pt/s per lane. 1 US pt/s ≈ 4.732×10⁻⁴ m³/s = 0.4732 L/s = 7.5 US gal/min.
