Day [ac·ft/d]

Acre-foot per day [ac·ft/d] is a unit of volumetric flow rate used in hydrology, irrigation, and water resource management. One acre-foot represents the volume of water required to cover one acre of land to a depth of one foot, approximately 1,233 cubic meters or 325,851 gallons. When expressed per day, ac·ft/d measures the amount of water delivered, consumed, or flowing through a system in a single 24-hour period. This unit is particularly useful for managing large-scale water distribution systems, such as reservoirs, canals, and municipal water supply networks, allowing engineers to monitor daily water availability and usage. For example, an irrigation canal delivering 50 ac·ft/d provides enough water to cover 50 acres to a depth of one foot in a day, helping farmers plan crop irrigation schedules. It is also used in environmental monitoring, flood management, and industrial water usage planning. Compared to ac·ft/y, acre-foot per day provides short-term resolution, enabling timely operational decisions and adjustments. Using ac·ft/d allows hydrologists, engineers, and water managers to track, regulate, and optimize water flow, ensuring efficient, sustainable, and reliable use of water resources for agriculture, municipal supply, and industry.

Hundred-Cubic Foot/Minute [hcf/min]

Hundred-cubic foot per minute [hcf/min] is a unit of volumetric flow rate commonly used in industrial processes, municipal water supply, and large-scale fluid management. One hundred cubic feet (hcf) equals 100 cubic feet of water, approximately 2,832 liters or 748 gallons. Expressed per minute, hcf/min measures the volume of water or fluid flowing through a system every sixty seconds, making it ideal for applications that require real-time monitoring of high-volume flows. For example, a pipeline transporting 10 hcf/min delivers 1,000 cubic feet of water each minute, allowing engineers to manage pressure, prevent overflows, and ensure efficient distribution. In industrial systems, hcf/min is used to control cooling water, process fluids, or chemical inputs, ensuring safe and efficient operations. Compared to hcf/h or hcf/d, this unit provides finer temporal resolution, enabling immediate adjustments and precise flow control. Using hundred-cubic foot per minute allows engineers, operators, and facility managers to measure, monitor, and optimize fluid movement, ensuring operational efficiency, safety, and reliability across municipal, industrial, and irrigation applications.
