About Converting Bushel per Minutes to Oil barrel per Seconds
Bushel per Minutes and Oil barrel per Seconds both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
oil barrel per seconds = bushel per minutes × 0.00369411805126
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 bushel per minutes equals 0.000587317836115 base units, and 1 oil barrel per seconds equals 0.158987294928 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct bushel per minutes-to-oil barrel per seconds factor of 0.00369411805126.
Simple example
1 bu/min × 0.003694118051 = 0.0036941181 bbl/s
1 bushel per minutes = 0.0036941181 oil barrel per seconds.
Real-world example
60 bu/min × 0.003694118051 = 0.2216470831 bbl/s
60 bushel per minutes = 0.2216470831 oil barrel per seconds.

How do I convert oil barrel per seconds back to bushel per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 oil barrel per seconds equals 270.7006073 bushel per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a bushel per minutes?
Bushel per Minutes (bu/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a oil barrel per seconds?
Oil barrel per Seconds (bbl/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the bushel per minutes to oil barrel per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both bushel per minutes and oil barrel per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.003694118051 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
