About Litres per second
The litre per second (L/s) equals 10⁻³ m³/s, the standard unit for municipal water-supply engineering, fire-fighting flows, and HVAC system air handling. A fire hydrant delivers 15-30 L/s; a household mains water connection is typically 0.1-0.5 L/s; a large building HVAC chilled-water loop circulates 50-200 L/s. 1 L/s = 10⁻³ m³/s = 3.6 m³/h ≈ 15.85 US gal/min.
About UK gallons per hour
The UK gallon per hour (gph) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/3600 ≈ 1.263×10⁻⁶ m³/s, found in pre-metric British burner-nozzle ratings, oil-consumption logs for diesel generators, and ship fuel-economy records. British aviation fuel consumption was once published in UK gal/h; legacy Lloyd's Register tanker descriptions used UK gal/h for cargo pump capacities. 1 UK gph ≈ 1.263×10⁻⁶ m³/s.
