Reference
How volume flow rate conversion works
Volumetric flow is volume passing a point per unit of time. US gallons and Imperial gallons remain explicitly separated.
Values are converted to cubic meter per second first, then from that reference into the requested unit. Keeping a single documented reference reduces inconsistent pair-by-pair constants.

Questions
Volume Flow Rate FAQ
What is the reference unit for volume flow rate conversions?
ConvertWin uses cubic meter per second (m³/s) as the internal reference for this category, then converts to the selected output unit.
How accurate is this volume flow rate converter?
Unit conversion does not account for compressibility, pressure, or temperature effects on actual fluid volume.
