About US pints per second
The US pint per second (pt/s) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/8 ≈ 4.732×10⁻⁴ m³/s, used in US food-filling equipment rated in pints-per-second throughput. High-speed dairy-packaging lines filling 16 oz (1 pt) cartons can achieve 10-20 pt/s per lane. 1 US pt/s ≈ 4.732×10⁻⁴ m³/s = 0.4732 L/s = 7.5 US gal/min.
About Megalitres per day
The megalitre per day (ML/d) equals 1000/86400 ≈ 0.011574 m³/s, numerically identical to million litres per day. It is the preferred notation in Australian water-authority reporting, environmental flow assessments, and reservoir storage accounting. Murray-Darling Basin environmental flows are specified in ML/d; urban water utilities publish reservoir capacity and daily draw in ML/d. 1 ML/d ≈ 0.011574 m³/s = 1 000 m³/d.
