In this article I will show you how to convert 217 cubic feet per second into cubic meters per hour. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 217 ft³ps to m³ph. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Cubic feet per second to Cubic meters per hour
A cubic feet per second is greater than a cubic meters per hour. I know that a ft³ps is greater than a m³ph because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 217 cubic feet per second into cubic meters per hour, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for ft³ps to m³ph is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 217 ft³ps to m³ph by multiplying 101.94048
by the number of cubic feet per second we have, which is 217.
So, the answer to the question "what is 217 cubic feet per second in cubic meters per hour?" is 22121.08416 m³ph.
