About Converting Fluid ounce per Seconds to Cubic Meter per Seconds
Fluid ounce per Seconds and Cubic Meter 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
cubic meter per seconds = fluid ounce per seconds × 0.0000295735295625
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 fluid ounce per seconds equals 0.0000295735295625 base units, and 1 cubic meter per seconds equals 1 base unit, so dividing one by the other gives the direct fluid ounce per seconds-to-cubic meter per seconds factor of 0.0000295735295625.
Simple example
1 fl oz/s × 0.00002957352956 = 0.0000295735 m3/s
1 fluid ounce per seconds = 0.0000295735 cubic meter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 fl oz/s × 0.00002957352956 = 0.0017744118 m3/s
60 fluid ounce per seconds = 0.0017744118 cubic meter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many cubic meter per seconds are in 1 fluid ounce per seconds?
1 fluid ounce per seconds equals 0.0000295735 cubic meter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert fluid ounce per seconds to cubic meter per seconds?
Multiply the fluid ounce per seconds value by 0.00002957352956. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cubic meter per seconds back to fluid ounce per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cubic meter per seconds equals 33,814.0227 fluid ounce per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a fluid ounce per seconds?
Fluid ounce per Seconds (fl oz/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic meter per seconds?
Cubic Meter per Seconds (m3/s) measures volumetric flow rate. The SI coherent unit for volumetric flow rate — one cubic meter of volume passing a point every second. It is classified as a SI coherent derived unit.
Is the fluid ounce per seconds to cubic meter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both fluid ounce per seconds and cubic meter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00002957352956 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.
