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 quarts per hour
The US quart per hour (qt/h) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/4/3600 ≈ 2.629×10⁻⁷ m³/s, used in US agricultural irrigation drippers (emitters rated in qt/h) and hobby aquaculture systems. A drip emitter rated 1 qt/h ≈ 0.946 L/h is a common size for garden irrigation in the US market. 1 US qt/h ≈ 2.629×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
