About Converting Cubic foot per Seconds to Metric teaspoons per Millisecond
Cubic foot per Seconds and Metric teaspoon per Millisecond 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
metric teaspoons per millisecond = cubic foot per seconds × 5.6633693184
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 metric teaspoon per millisecond equals 0.005 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per seconds-to-metric teaspoon per millisecond factor of 5.6633693184.
Simple example
1 ft3/s × 5.663369318 = 5.663369318 metric tsp/ms
1 cubic foot per seconds = 5.663369318 metric teaspoons per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 ft3/s × 5.663369318 = 339.8021591 metric tsp/ms
60 cubic foot per seconds = 339.8021591 metric teaspoons per millisecond.

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.
