SwitchExplanation
Formula: Cubic Feet per Second = Liters per Hour × 0.00000980963. Why: the route converts both units through liters per second using the exact cubic-foot definition and the matching time-base scaling.
Liters per Hour (L/h): a slower volumetric flow unit often used for dosing systems, filtration, and low-rate process specifications.
Cubic Feet per Second (cfs): a larger cubic-foot flow unit used for airflow, drainage, and open-channel or hydraulic flow reporting.
This route is useful when translating between SI flow units and gallon- or cubic-foot-based reporting for pumps, piping, ventilation, and plant documentation.
This conversion is purely multiplicative because both units reduce through one liters-per-second flow basis with fixed unit-volume definitions and no offset.
