About Converting Gallon per Seconds to Metric cup per Seconds
Gallon per Seconds and Metric cup 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
metric cup per seconds = gallon per seconds × 15.141647136
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per seconds equals 0.003785411784 base units, and 1 metric cup per seconds equals 0.00025 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per seconds-to-metric cup per seconds factor of 15.141647136.
Simple example
1 gal/s × 15.14164714 = 15.14164714 metric cup/s
1 gallon per seconds = 15.14164714 metric cup per seconds.
Real-world example
60 gal/s × 15.14164714 = 908.4988282 metric cup/s
60 gallon per seconds = 908.4988282 metric cup per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many metric cup per seconds are in 1 gallon per seconds?
1 gallon per seconds equals 15.14164714 metric cup per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert gallon per seconds to metric cup per seconds?
Multiply the gallon per seconds value by 15.14164714. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert metric cup per seconds back to gallon per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 metric cup per seconds equals 0.0660430131 gallon per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a gallon per seconds?
Gallon per Seconds (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a metric cup per seconds?
Metric cup per Seconds (metric cup/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per seconds to metric cup per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per seconds and metric cup per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 15.14164714 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.
