About Converting Cup per Hours to Gallon per Minutes
Cup per Hours 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 = cup per hours × 0.00104166666667
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cup per hours equals 6.571895e-8 base units, and 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cup per hours-to-gallon per minutes factor of 0.00104166666667.
Simple example
1 cup/h × 0.001041666667 = 0.0010416667 gal/min
1 cup per hours = 0.0010416667 gallon per minutes.
Real-world example
60 cup/h × 0.001041666667 = 0.0625 gal/min
60 cup per hours = 0.0625 gallon per minutes.

How do I convert gallon per minutes back to cup per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per minutes equals 960 cup per hours. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cup per hours?
Cup per Hours (cup/h) 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 cup per hours to gallon per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both cup per hours and gallon per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.001041666667 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.
