About Converting Gallon per Minutes to Cubic Kilometer per Weeks
Gallon per Minutes and Cubic Kilometer per Weeks 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. Gallon per Minutes is most often used for us residential and commercial plumbing fixture flow ratings.
Formula
cubic kilometer per weeks = gallon per minutes × 3.815695e-8
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, and 1 cubic kilometer per weeks equals 1653.43915344 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per minutes-to-cubic kilometer per weeks factor of 3.815695e-8.
Simple example
1 gal/min × 3.815695e-8 = 3.815695e-8 km3/wk
1 gallon per minutes = 3.815695e-8 cubic kilometer per weeks.
Real-world example
60 gal/min × 3.815695e-8 = 0.0000022894 km3/wk
60 gallon per minutes = 0.0000022894 cubic kilometer per weeks.

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.
What is a cubic kilometer per weeks?
Cubic Kilometer per Weeks (km3/wk) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per minutes to cubic kilometer per weeks conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per minutes and cubic kilometer per weeks are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 3.815695e-8 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
Where is the gallon per minutes still used today?
United States (plumbing, pump, and irrigation industry standard)
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.
