About US barrels per second
The US barrel per second (bbl/s) equals 0.158987294928 m³/s, an extremely large flow rate used only for catastrophic spill-rate estimates and very large pipeline surge calculations. The 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill peaked at ≈60 000 bbl/d ≈ 0.000694 bbl/s; major subsea pipeline ruptures may briefly exceed 1 bbl/s during decompression. 1 US bbl/s = 0.158987 m³/s ≈ 158.987 L/s.
About US fluid ounces per second
The US fluid ounce per second (fl oz/s) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/128 ≈ 2.957×10⁻⁵ m³/s. It appears in US food-processing and beverage-filling machine specifications, where high-speed bottling lines may fill containers at dozens of fluid ounces per second per nozzle. A standard 16 fl oz bottle filled in 0.5 s corresponds to 32 fl oz/s per lane. 1 fl oz/s ≈ 2.957×10⁻⁵ m³/s.
