About Converting Cubic foot per Minutes to Cubic Meter per Days
Cubic foot per Minutes and Cubic Meter per Days 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. Cubic foot per Minutes is most often used for the standard unit for rating hvac airflow, compressed-air equipment output, and fan/blower performance.
Formula
cubic meter per days = cubic foot per minutes × 40.7762590925
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per minutes equals 0.0004719474432 base units, and 1 cubic meter per days equals 0.0000115740740741 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per minutes-to-cubic meter per days factor of 40.7762590925.
Simple example
1 ft3/min × 40.77625909 = 40.77625909 m3/d
1 cubic foot per minutes = 40.77625909 cubic meter per days.
Real-world example
60 ft3/min × 40.77625909 = 2,446.575546 m3/d
60 cubic foot per minutes = 2,446.575546 cubic meter per days.

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.
