Convert US barrels per hour to UK pints per minute
Convert US barrels per hour (bbl/h) to UK pints per minute (pt/min) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
pt/min = bbl/h × 4.662975434
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 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.
