Convert Square feet per second to Square centimetres per minute
Convert Square feet per second (ft²/s) to Square centimetres per minute (cm²/min) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
cm²/min = ft²/s × 55741.824
About Square feet per second
The square foot per second (ft²/s) equals 0.09290304 m²/s, the imperial base unit for thermal diffusivity analogous to m²/s. It is used in US aerospace engineering and combustion research for highly conductive materials and high-temperature plasmas. Diamond, the most thermally diffusive solid at ≈7 cm²/s, converts to ≈0.0075 ft²/s; silver to ≈0.00167 ft²/s. 1 ft²/s = 3600 ft²/h = 0.09290304 m²/s.
About Square centimetres per minute
The square centimetre per minute (cm²/min) equals ≈1.667 × 10⁻⁶ m²/s, a transitional unit seen in older French and Soviet thermal engineering literature. Some food-science papers on heat penetration into frozen products express diffusivity in cm²/min to keep values close to unity. 1 cm²/min = 1e-4/60 m²/s ≈ 1.667 × 10⁻⁶ m²/s.
