Convert Cubic feet per day to Kilolitres per second
Convert Cubic feet per day (ft³/d) to Kilolitres per second (kL/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kL/s = ft³/d × 3.277412800e-7
About Cubic feet per day
The cubic foot per day (ft³/d) equals 0.028316846592/86400 ≈ 3.277×10⁻⁷ m³/s, found in US oil-and-gas production reports for low-rate gas wells and groundwater monitoring wells. A marginal coalbed-methane well producing 50 Mcf/d (50 000 ft³/d) of gas represents a modest but economic flow; residential water-well yield tests report in ft³/d. 1 ft³/d ≈ 3.277×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
About Kilolitres per second
The kilolitre per second (kL/s) equals 1 m³/s, so 1 kL/s is identical to 1 m³/s. The term kilolitre is favoured in Australian and South African engineering over the equivalent cubic metre per second. Municipal water-main flow and stormwater-channel capacity are sometimes expressed in kL/s in these countries. 1 kL/s = 1 m³/s = 1 000 L/s ≈ 15 850 US gal/min.
