About Converting Gallon per Hours to Cubic yard per Hours
Gallon per Hours and Cubic yard per Hours 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 yard per hours = gallon per hours × 0.00495113168724
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per hours equals 0.00000105150327333 base units, and 1 cubic yard per hours equals 0.00021237634944 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per hours-to-cubic yard per hours factor of 0.00495113168724.
Simple example
1 gal/h × 0.004951131687 = 0.0049511317 yd3/h
1 gallon per hours = 0.0049511317 cubic yard per hours.
Real-world example
60 gal/h × 0.004951131687 = 0.2970679012 yd3/h
60 gallon per hours = 0.2970679012 cubic yard per hours.

What is a gallon per hours?
Gallon per Hours (gal/h) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic yard per hours?
Cubic yard per Hours (yd3/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per hours to cubic yard per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per hours and cubic yard per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.004951131687 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.
