About US quarts per second
The US quart per second (qt/s) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/4 ≈ 9.464×10⁻⁴ m³/s, used in US industrial filling lines handling quart-size containers (motor oil, paint, sauce). A high-speed filling machine loading 1 qt bottles at 4 per second processes 4 qt/s per nozzle. 1 US qt/s ≈ 9.464×10⁻⁴ m³/s = 0.9464 L/s.
About Litres per second
The litre per second (L/s) equals 10⁻³ m³/s, the standard unit for municipal water-supply engineering, fire-fighting flows, and HVAC system air handling. A fire hydrant delivers 15-30 L/s; a household mains water connection is typically 0.1-0.5 L/s; a large building HVAC chilled-water loop circulates 50-200 L/s. 1 L/s = 10⁻³ m³/s = 3.6 m³/h ≈ 15.85 US gal/min.
