About Converting Cubic foot per Seconds to Imperial gallons per Fortnight
Cubic foot per Seconds and Imperial gallon per Fortnight 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
imperial gallons per fortnight = cubic foot per seconds × 7534399.37126
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 imperial gallon per fortnight equals 3.758342e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per seconds-to-imperial gallon per fortnight factor of 7534399.37126.
Simple example
1 ft3/s × 7534399.371 = 7,534,399.371 imp gal/fn
1 cubic foot per seconds = 7,534,399.371 imperial gallons per fortnight.
Real-world example
60 ft3/s × 7534399.371 = 452,063,962.3 imp gal/fn
60 cubic foot per seconds = 452,063,962.3 imperial gallons per fortnight.

Frequently asked questions
How many imperial gallons per fortnight are in 1 cubic foot per seconds?
1 cubic foot per seconds equals 7,534,399.371 imperial gallons per fortnight, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert cubic foot per seconds to imperial gallon per fortnight?
Multiply the cubic foot per seconds value by 7534399.371. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert imperial gallon per fortnight back to cubic foot per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 imperial gallon per fortnight equals 1.327246e-7 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 imperial gallon per fortnight?
Imperial gallon per Fortnight (imp gal/fn) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic foot per seconds to imperial gallon per fortnight conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic foot per seconds and imperial gallon per fortnight are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 7534399.371 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.
