About Converting Cubic foot per Weeks to Gallon per Minutes
Cubic foot per Weeks and Gallon per Minutes 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
gallon per minutes = cubic foot per weeks × 0.000742115027829
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per weeks equals 4.682018e-8 base units, and 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per weeks-to-gallon per minutes factor of 0.000742115027829.
Simple example
1 ft3/wk × 0.0007421150278 = 0.000742115 gal/min
1 cubic foot per weeks = 0.000742115 gallon per minutes.
Real-world example
60 ft3/wk × 0.0007421150278 = 0.0445269017 gal/min
60 cubic foot per weeks = 0.0445269017 gallon per minutes.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallon per minutes are in 1 cubic foot per weeks?
1 cubic foot per weeks equals 0.000742115 gallon per minutes, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert cubic foot per weeks to gallon per minutes?
Multiply the cubic foot per weeks value by 0.0007421150278. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per minutes back to cubic foot per weeks?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per minutes equals 1,347.5 cubic foot per weeks. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cubic foot per weeks?
Cubic foot per Weeks (ft3/wk) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per minutes?
Gallon per Minutes (gal/min) measures volumetric flow rate. The standard US unit for pump, plumbing, and irrigation flow-rate specifications. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
Is the cubic foot per weeks to gallon per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic foot per weeks and gallon per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.0007421150278 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.
