About Converting Gallon per Minutes to Imperial pint per Minutes
Gallon per Minutes and Imperial pint 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. Gallon per Minutes is most often used for us residential and commercial plumbing fixture flow ratings.
Formula
imperial pint per minutes = gallon per minutes × 6.66139347703
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 imperial pint per minutes equals 0.00000947102083333 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per minutes-to-imperial pint per minutes factor of 6.66139347703.
Simple example
1 gal/min × 6.661393477 = 6.661393477 imp pt/min
1 gallon per minutes = 6.661393477 imperial pint per minutes.
Real-world example
60 gal/min × 6.661393477 = 399.6836086 imp pt/min
60 gallon per minutes = 399.6836086 imperial pint per minutes.

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.
