About Converting Cubic yard per Seconds to Quart per Minutes
Cubic yard per Seconds and Quart 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
quart per minutes = cubic yard per seconds × 48473.7662338
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic yard per seconds equals 0.764554857984 base units, and 1 quart per minutes equals 0.0000157725491 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic yard per seconds-to-quart per minutes factor of 48473.7662338.
Simple example
1 yd3/s × 48473.76623 = 48,473.76623 qt/min
1 cubic yard per seconds = 48,473.76623 quart per minutes.
Real-world example
60 yd3/s × 48473.76623 = 2,908,425.974 qt/min
60 cubic yard per seconds = 2,908,425.974 quart per minutes.

Multiply the cubic yard per seconds value by 48473.76623. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert quart per minutes back to cubic yard per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 quart per minutes equals 0.0000206297 cubic yard per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cubic yard per seconds?
Cubic yard per Seconds (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a quart per minutes?
Quart per Minutes (qt/min) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic yard per seconds to quart per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic yard per seconds and quart per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 48473.76623 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.
