About Square feet per minute
The square foot per minute (ft²/min) equals ≈1.548 × 10⁻³ m²/s, an uncommon transitional unit appearing in some older US industrial furnace design charts and heat-treatment process sheets where holding times are expressed in minutes. 1 ft²/min = 60 ft²/h = 0.09290304/60 m²/s ≈1.548 × 10⁻³ m²/s.
About Square centimetres per hour
The square centimetre per hour (cm²/h) equals 1/36 000 000 m²/s. Environmental geophysicists use cm²/h when measuring heat flow in sedimentary rock columns or permafrost layers. Granite has a diffusivity of ≈36 cm²/h; dry sand ≈9 cm²/h. 1 cm²/h = 1e-4/3600 m²/s ≈ 2.778 × 10⁻⁸ m²/s.
