cfm/in² to l/s/cm² and l/s/cm² to cfm/in² Calculator
How to Calculate Between cfm/in² and l/s/cm²
The cfm/in² to l/s/cm² and l/s/cm² to cfm/in² Calculator converts between cubic feet per minute per square inch (cfm/in²) and liters per second per square centimeter (l/s/cm²) for air velocity measurements. The formulas are:
\( l/s/cm^2 = cfm/in^2 \times 0.07315 \)
\( cfm/in^2 = \frac{l/s/cm^2}{0.07315} \)
Where:
- \( cfm/in^2 \): Cubic feet per minute per square inch, a unit of air velocity.
- \( l/s/cm^2 \): Liters per second per square centimeter, a unit of air velocity.
Select the conversion direction, enter the input value, and calculate the result.
Note: The conversion factor 0.07315 is derived from 1 cfm = 0.47194745 l/s and 1 in² = 6.4516 cm².
Using the cfm/in² and l/s/cm² Mutual Conversion Calculator
This calculator is useful for HVAC design, ventilation rates, and air flow analysis, supporting bidirectional conversions between imperial and metric units.
Select the direction (cfm/in² to l/s/cm² or l/s/cm² to cfm/in²), input the value. The calculator outputs the converted value.
Example 1: For a value of 1 cfm/in² to l/s/cm².
- Direction: cfm/in² to l/s/cm²
- Input: \( 1 \)
- Calculation: \( l/s/cm^2 = 1 \times 0.07315 \approx 0.073 \)
- Result: \( 0.073 \, \text{l/s/cm²} \)
Example 2: For a value of 0.073 l/s/cm² to cfm/in².
- Direction: l/s/cm² to cfm/in²
- Input: \( 0.073 \)
- Calculation: \( cfm/in^2 = 0.073 / 0.07315 \approx 1 \)
- Result: \( 1.000 \, \text{cfm/in²} \)
Use this tool for quick bidirectional conversions in engineering or environmental applications.
