LPM to SCFM Calculator

1. What is an LPM to SCFM Calculator?

Definition: This calculator converts flow rates between liters per minute (LPM) and standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM).

Purpose: It assists in gas flow analysis for applications like compressors, HVAC, and industrial systems under standard conditions.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses these conversion factors (assuming standard conditions: 1 atm, 15°C):

\[ 1 \, \text{LPM} = 0.0353147 \, \text{SCFM} \] \[ 1 \, \text{SCFM} = 28.3168 \, \text{LPM} \]

Explanation: Enter a flow rate in LPM or SCFM, and the calculator computes the equivalent value in the other unit.

3. Importance of Flow Rate Conversion

Details: Accurate conversions between LPM and SCFM are vital for standardizing gas flow measurements in engineering and industrial processes.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Input a flow rate (≥0) with up to 5 decimal places precision (step=0.00001) and select the unit (LPM or SCFM). Results are shown in both units.
