Convert Cubic Meters per Hour to cm³/min

Formula

cm³/min = m³/h × 16666.66666667

Derivation from SI units:

• 1 m³/h = 1 m³ ÷ 3600 s
• 1 cm³/min = 10⁻⁶ m³ ÷ 60 s
• 1 m³/h = 0.0002777777777778 m³/s ÷ 1.666666666667 × 10⁻⁸ m³/s per cm³/min = 16666.66666667 cm³/min

Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Cubic Meter per Hour definition: cubic meter per hour; Cubic Centimeter per Minute definition: cubic centimeter per minute.

Worked examples

1. A reading of 150 m³/h converts to 2500000 cm³/min.
   150 m³/h × 16666.66667 = 2500000 cm³/min
2. A value of 1500 m³/h is 25000000 cm³/min.
   1500 m³/h × 16666.66667 = 25000000 cm³/min

Where it's used

Cubic Meters per Hour are used for air-handling unit and fan ratings in Europe and Asia, while cubic centimeters per minute appear in chromatography carrier-gas and HPLC flows. Both measure volumetric flow rate (volume per unit time), so the conversion is a fixed factor.
