About Converting Cubic foot per Seconds to Fluid ounce per Years
Cubic foot per Seconds and Fluid ounce per Years 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 Seconds is most often used for the standard unit used by the us geological survey for reporting river and stream discharge at gauging stations.
Formula
fluid ounce per years = cubic foot per seconds × 30215986455.3
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per seconds equals 0.028316846592 base units, and 1 fluid ounce per years equals 9.371478e-13 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per seconds-to-fluid ounce per years factor of 30215986455.3.
Simple example
1 ft3/s × 30215986460 = 30,215,986,460 fl oz/yr
1 cubic foot per seconds = 30,215,986,460 fluid ounce per years.
Real-world example
60 ft3/s × 30215986460 = 1.812959e+12 fl oz/yr
60 cubic foot per seconds = 1.812959e+12 fluid ounce per years.

Reverse conversion: Fluid ounce per Years to Cubic foot per Seconds
1 fl oz/yr × 3.309506e-11 = 3.309506e-11 ft3/s
1 fluid ounce per years = 3.309506e-11 cubic foot per seconds.
cubic foot per seconds = fluid ounce per years × 3.309506e-11

Frequently asked questions
How many fluid ounce per years are in 1 cubic foot per seconds?
1 cubic foot per seconds equals 30,215,986,460 fluid ounce per years, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert cubic foot per seconds to fluid ounce per years?
Multiply the cubic foot per seconds value by 30215986460. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert fluid ounce per years back to cubic foot per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 fluid ounce per years equals 3.309506e-11 cubic foot per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cubic foot per seconds?
Cubic foot per Seconds (ft3/s) measures volumetric flow rate. One cubic foot of volume passing a point every second. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
What is a fluid ounce per years?
Fluid ounce per Years (fl oz/yr) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic foot per seconds to fluid ounce per years conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic foot per seconds and fluid ounce per years are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 30215986460 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
Where is the cubic foot per seconds still used today?
United States
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.
