About Converting Imperial pint per Hours to Cubic foot per Seconds
Imperial pint per Hours and Cubic foot 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 foot per seconds = imperial pint per hours × 0.00000557443240402
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial pint per hours equals 1.578503e-7 base units, and 1 cubic foot per seconds equals 0.028316846592 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial pint per hours-to-cubic foot per seconds factor of 0.00000557443240402.
Simple example
1 imp pt/h × 0.000005574432404 = 0.0000055744 ft3/s
1 imperial pint per hours = 0.0000055744 cubic foot per seconds.
Real-world example
60 imp pt/h × 0.000005574432404 = 0.0003344659 ft3/s
60 imperial pint per hours = 0.0003344659 cubic foot per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many cubic foot per seconds are in 1 imperial pint per hours?
1 imperial pint per hours equals 0.0000055744 cubic foot per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert imperial pint per hours to cubic foot per seconds?
Multiply the imperial pint per hours value by 0.000005574432404. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cubic foot per seconds back to imperial pint per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cubic foot per seconds equals 179,390.4612 imperial pint per hours. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a imperial pint per hours?
Imperial pint per Hours (imp pt/h) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic foot per seconds?
Cubic foot per Seconds (ft3/s) measures volumetric flow rate. One cubic foot of volume passing a point every second. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
Is the imperial pint per hours to cubic foot per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both imperial pint per hours and cubic foot per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000005574432404 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.
