Convert US pints per minute to US barrels per hour
Convert US pints per minute (pt/min) to US barrels per hour (bbl/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
bbl/h = pt/min × 0.1785714286
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 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.
