About Converting Cubic foot per Hours to Liter per Hours
Cubic foot per Hours and Liter 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
liter per hours = cubic foot per hours × 28.316846592
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per hours equals 0.00000786579072 base units, and 1 liter per hours equals 2.777778e-7 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per hours-to-liter per hours factor of 28.316846592.
Simple example
1 ft3/h × 28.31684659 = 28.31684659 L/h
1 cubic foot per hours = 28.31684659 liter per hours.
Real-world example
60 ft3/h × 28.31684659 = 1,699.010796 L/h
60 cubic foot per hours = 1,699.010796 liter per hours.

How do I convert liter per hours back to cubic foot per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 liter per hours equals 0.0353146667 cubic foot per hours. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cubic foot per hours?
Cubic foot per Hours (ft3/h) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a liter per hours?
Liter per Hours (L/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic foot per hours to liter per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic foot per hours and liter per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 28.31684659 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.
