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.

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.
