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 UK pints per second

The UK (imperial) pint per second (pt/s) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/8 ≈ 5.683×10⁻⁴ m³/s. The UK pint (20 fl oz) is 20% larger than the US pint. It is used in British brewery and beverage-filling lines - a canning line filling 0.568 L (1 pt) cans at 10 cans/s processes exactly 10 UK pt/s. 1 UK pt/s ≈ 5.683×10⁻⁴ m³/s ≈ 1.201 US pt/s.
