Conversion Formula

bbl/s = pt/h × 8.267195767e-7

About US pints per hour

The US pint per hour (pt/h) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/8/3600 ≈ 1.314×10⁻⁷ m³/s, used in US medical-device standards for slow-drip infusion and in American homebrew calculations for sparge water addition rates. A slow gravity sparge at 24 pt/h = 3 US gal/h is typical for small-batch homebrewing. 1 US pt/h ≈ 1.314×10⁻⁷ m³/s.

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.
