Convert US quarts per minute to Cubic yards per second
Convert US quarts per minute (qt/min) to Cubic yards per second (yd³/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
yd³/s = qt/min × 2.062971536e-5
About US quarts per minute
The US quart per minute (qt/min) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/4/60 ≈ 1.577×10⁻⁵ m³/s, encountered in US small-engine fuel system testing and food-processing pump calibration. Engine dynamometer fuel-flow instrumentation sometimes uses qt/min when testing small gasoline engines consuming 1-6 qt/min at full load. 1 US qt/min ≈ 1.577×10⁻⁵ m³/s.
About Cubic yards per second
The cubic yard per second (yd³/s) equals 0.764554857984 m³/s, a large unit used in US civil engineering for river flood-stage measurements and reservoir emergency-spillway capacity. A major dam spillway releasing water at 1 000 yd³/s could drain an Olympic pool in about 3 seconds. 1 yd³/s = 0.764554857984 m³/s ≈ 764.555 L/s ≈ 27 ft³/s.
