About Converting Cup per Minutes to Imperial gallon per Seconds
Cup per Minutes and Imperial gallon per Seconds 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
imperial gallon per seconds = cup per minutes × 0.000867368942322
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cup per minutes equals 0.000003943137275 base units, and 1 imperial gallon per seconds equals 0.00454609 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cup per minutes-to-imperial gallon per seconds factor of 0.000867368942322.
Simple example
1 cup/min × 0.0008673689423 = 0.0008673689 imp gal/s
1 cup per minutes = 0.0008673689 imperial gallon per seconds.
Real-world example
60 cup/min × 0.0008673689423 = 0.0520421365 imp gal/s
60 cup per minutes = 0.0520421365 imperial gallon per seconds.

What is a cup per minutes?
Cup per Minutes (cup/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a imperial gallon per seconds?
Imperial gallon per Seconds (imp gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cup per minutes to imperial gallon per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both cup per minutes and imperial gallon per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.0008673689423 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.
