About Cubic metres per second

The cubic metre per second (m³/s) is the SI coherent unit of volumetric flow rate. It is used for large river discharges, turbine inlet flows, and major pipeline capacities. The Amazon River at its mouth averages ≈200 000 m³/s; a large hydroelectric turbine passes 400-800 m³/s; a major municipal water-main carries 5-20 m³/s. 1 m³/s = 1 000 L/s ≈ 15 850 US gal/min = 35.315 ft³/s.

About Litres per day

The litre per day (L/d) equals 10⁻³/86400 ≈ 1.157×10⁻⁸ m³/s, standard in water-resource management, reverse-osmosis membrane rating, and daily per-capita water-use statistics. A residential reverse-osmosis unit produces 100-300 L/d of purified water; the WHO minimum for basic household use is 50 L/d per person. 1 L/d ≈ 1.157×10⁻⁸ m³/s.
