About Converting Teaspoon per Seconds to Cubic foot per Seconds
Teaspoon per Seconds 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 = teaspoon per seconds × 0.00017406322338
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 teaspoon per seconds equals 0.00000492892159375 base units, and 1 cubic foot per seconds equals 0.028316846592 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct teaspoon per seconds-to-cubic foot per seconds factor of 0.00017406322338.
Simple example
1 tsp/s × 0.0001740632234 = 0.0001740632 ft3/s
1 teaspoon per seconds = 0.0001740632 cubic foot per seconds.
Real-world example
60 tsp/s × 0.0001740632234 = 0.0104437934 ft3/s
60 teaspoon per seconds = 0.0104437934 cubic foot per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many cubic foot per seconds are in 1 teaspoon per seconds?
1 teaspoon per seconds equals 0.0001740632 cubic foot per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert teaspoon per seconds to cubic foot per seconds?
Multiply the teaspoon per seconds value by 0.0001740632234. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cubic foot per seconds back to teaspoon per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cubic foot per seconds equals 5,745.038961 teaspoon per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a teaspoon per seconds?
Teaspoon per Seconds (tsp/s) 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 teaspoon per seconds to cubic foot per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both teaspoon per seconds and cubic foot per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.0001740632234 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.
