Conversion Formula
ac-ft/h = pt/min × 2.301662458e-5
About US pints per minute
The US pint per minute (pt/min) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/8/60 ≈ 7.886×10⁻⁶ m³/s, a unit encountered in US home-brewing, small-batch winery transfers, and consumer-grade pump ratings. A standard kitchen faucet running at 2 US gal/min produces 16 pt/min; a small submersible pond pump rated 50 gal/h delivers ≈27 pt/min. 1 US pt/min ≈ 7.886×10⁻⁶ m³/s.
About Acre-feet per hour
The acre-foot per hour (ac-ft/h) equals 1233.48183754752/3600 ≈ 0.34263 m³/s, standard for sizing irrigation district delivery canals, reservoir outflow scheduling, and aquifer recharge basin calculations in the western US. The US Bureau of Reclamation uses ac-ft/h for canal operational planning; a 1 000-acre farm irrigating with 0.5 in/h rain-equivalent receives ≈41 ac-ft/h. 1 ac-ft/h ≈ 0.34263 m³/s.
