Conversion Formula

bbl/s = yd³/min × 0.08014842301

About Cubic yards per minute

The cubic yard per minute (yd³/min) equals 0.764554857984/60 ≈ 0.012743 m³/s, used in ready-mix concrete delivery rates (a concrete truck discharges 8-10 yd³ in about 10 min = 0.8-1 yd³/min) and dredge pump throughput in US harbour projects. 1 yd³/min ≈ 0.012743 m³/s = 12.74 L/s ≈ 200.0 US gal/min.

About US barrels per second

The US barrel per second (bbl/s) equals 0.158987294928 m³/s, an extremely large flow rate used only for catastrophic spill-rate estimates and very large pipeline surge calculations. The 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill peaked at ≈60 000 bbl/d ≈ 0.000694 bbl/s; major subsea pipeline ruptures may briefly exceed 1 bbl/s during decompression. 1 US bbl/s = 0.158987 m³/s ≈ 158.987 L/s.
