About Converting Centiliter per Seconds to Cubic foot per Hours
Centiliter per Seconds and Cubic foot per Hours 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
cubic foot per hours = centiliter per seconds × 1.27132800197
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.00001 base units, and 1 cubic foot per hours equals 0.00000786579072 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per seconds-to-cubic foot per hours factor of 1.27132800197.
Simple example
1 cL/s × 1.271328002 = 1.271328002 ft3/h
1 centiliter per seconds = 1.271328002 cubic foot per hours.
Real-world example
60 cL/s × 1.271328002 = 76.27968012 ft3/h
60 centiliter per seconds = 76.27968012 cubic foot per hours.

Frequently asked questions
How many cubic foot per hours are in 1 centiliter per seconds?
1 centiliter per seconds equals 1.271328002 cubic foot per hours, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds to cubic foot per hours?
Multiply the centiliter per seconds value by 1.271328002. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cubic foot per hours back to centiliter per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cubic foot per hours equals 0.786579072 centiliter per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiliter per seconds?
Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic foot per hours?
Cubic foot per Hours (ft3/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per seconds to cubic foot per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per seconds and cubic foot per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1.271328002 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.
