About UK fluid ounces per hour
The UK fluid ounce per hour (fl oz/h) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/160/3600 ≈ 7.892×10⁻⁹ m³/s, used in low-flow British clinical settings and historical laboratory records. IV fluid delivery rates in old UK nursing charts and slow-drip infusion protocols were documented in fl oz/h before metrication. 1 UK fl oz/h ≈ 7.892×10⁻⁹ m³/s.
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.
