Convert Acre-feet per second to Cubic inches per minute
Convert Acre-feet per second (ac-ft/s) to Cubic inches per minute (in³/min) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
in³/min = ac-ft/s × 4516300800
About Acre-feet per second
The acre-foot per second (ac-ft/s) equals 1233.48183754752 m³/s, an enormous unit representing the flow that would fill a football-field-sized area to 1 ft depth every second. It appears in descriptions of exceptionally large dam-break flood waves and major river-system extreme events. The 1976 Teton Dam collapse peak outflow was estimated at ≈65 000 ft³/s ≈ 1.49 ac-ft/s. 1 ac-ft/s = 1 233.48 m³/s.
About Cubic inches per minute
The cubic inch per minute (in³/min) equals 1.6387064×10⁻⁵/60 ≈ 2.731×10⁻⁷ m³/s, common in US pneumatic and hydraulic circuit design. Air-tool consumption is rated in SCIM (standard cubic inches per minute); small hydraulic cylinders advancing at 10 in/min with 1 in² bore consume 10 in³/min: exactly 0.163 mL/s. 1 in³/min ≈ 2.731×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
