About US barrels per hour
The US barrel per hour (bbl/h) equals 0.158987294928/3600 ≈ 4.416×10⁻⁵ m³/s, standard in petroleum-refinery process engineering for crude-oil unit feed rates and product run-downs. Crude-distillation unit (CDU) feed is sized in bbl/h; a 100 000 bbl/d refinery processes ≈4 167 bbl/h. Process simulation software (Aspen HYSYS) uses bbl/h by default for petroleum streams. 1 bbl/h ≈ 4.416×10⁻⁵ m³/s.
About Millilitres per hour
The millilitre per hour (mL/h) equals 10⁻⁶/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁰ m³/s, standard for intravenous infusion pumps in clinical medicine and for slow-release laboratory syringe pumps. A 1 L IV bag running over 8 hours is set to 125 mL/h; subcutaneous insulin pumps deliver 1-100 mL/h of dilute insulin. 1 mL/h ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁰ m³/s.
