About UK fluid ounces per minute
The UK fluid ounce per minute (fl oz/min) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/160/60 ≈ 4.735×10⁻⁷ m³/s. It is found in pre-metric British plumbing and brewing specifications, where tap-flow and pump-delivery rates were stated in imperial fluid ounces per minute. A UK laboratory peristaltic pump calibrated to 30 fl oz/min delivers ≈14.2 mL/s. 1 UK fl oz/min ≈ 4.735×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
About Acre-feet per second
The acre-foot per second (ac-ft/s) equals 1233.48183754752 m³/s, an enormous unit representing the flow that would fill a football-field-sized area to 1 ft depth every second. It appears in descriptions of exceptionally large dam-break flood waves and major river-system extreme events. The 1976 Teton Dam collapse peak outflow was estimated at ≈65 000 ft³/s ≈ 1.49 ac-ft/s. 1 ac-ft/s = 1 233.48 m³/s.
