Conversion Formula

m³/h = pt/min × 0.034095675

About UK pints per minute

The UK pint per minute (pt/min) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/8/60 ≈ 9.471×10⁻⁶ m³/s, common in British beer-dispense engineering and pump datasheets pre-metrication. A cellar gas dispense system pressurising beer lines at 2 UK pt/min per tap maintains balanced flow for a 6-tap bar. 1 UK pt/min ≈ 9.471×10⁻⁶ m³/s ≈ 0.5683 L/min.

About Cubic metres per hour

The cubic metre per hour (m³/h) equals 1/3600 m³/s ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁴ m³/s, the dominant volumetric flow unit in European process engineering, HVAC, and water treatment. Pump datasheet curves, heat-exchanger sizing software, and wastewater-treatment design all use m³/h as the standard. A domestic water pump runs at 3-8 m³/h; a municipal WWTP inlet pump handles 500-5 000 m³/h. 1 m³/h ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁴ m³/s = 1 000 L/h.
