Convert Cubic inches per hour to Cubic yards per second
Convert Cubic inches per hour (in³/h) to Cubic yards per second (yd³/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
yd³/s = in³/h × 5.953741808e-9
About Cubic inches per hour
The cubic inch per hour (in³/h) equals 1.6387064×10⁻⁵/3600 ≈ 4.552×10⁻⁹ m³/s, appearing in US oilfield plunger-pump capacity datasheets and slow hydraulic-actuator specifications. It is also used in US ASTM leak-test standards where maximum allowable leakage past a valve seal is expressed in in³/h at rated pressure. 1 in³/h ≈ 4.552×10⁻⁹ m³/s.
About Cubic yards per second
The cubic yard per second (yd³/s) equals 0.764554857984 m³/s, a large unit used in US civil engineering for river flood-stage measurements and reservoir emergency-spillway capacity. A major dam spillway releasing water at 1 000 yd³/s could drain an Olympic pool in about 3 seconds. 1 yd³/s = 0.764554857984 m³/s ≈ 764.555 L/s ≈ 27 ft³/s.
