Convert Cubic yards per second to Cubic metres per day
Convert Cubic yards per second (yd³/s) to Cubic metres per day (m³/d) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
m³/d = yd³/s × 66057.53973
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.
About Cubic metres per day
The cubic metre per day (m³/d) equals 1/86400 ≈ 1.157×10⁻⁵ m³/s, standard in water-resource management, desalination-plant capacity, and per-capita water-consumption accounting. A municipal desalination plant may produce 100 000-1 000 000 m³/d; the WHO minimum water supply requirement is 0.05 m³/d per person. 1 m³/d ≈ 1.157×10⁻⁵ m³/s = 264.2 US gal/d.
