Centimeter/Minute [cm³/min]
Cubic centimeter per minute (cm³/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a fluid—liquid or gas—passing through a system every minute. One cubic centimeter represents a cube with sides of one centimeter, so cm³/min indicates how many such small volumes flow per sixty seconds. This unit is commonly used in laboratory experiments, medical dosing, chemical processing, and precision engineering where controlled, small-scale fluid flow is essential. For instance, in medical applications, infusion pumps deliver fluids like medication or nutrients at rates often specified in cm³/min to ensure accurate administration. In analytical chemistry, laboratory pumps or microfluidic devices utilize cm³/min measurements to regulate reagents and solvents with precision, ensuring consistent reactions. Compared to cm³/h, this unit provides higher temporal resolution, allowing better control and monitoring of moderate flow rates over shorter intervals. Using cubic centimeters per minute enables engineers, scientists, and technicians to accurately track, regulate, and optimize fluid flow, maintaining safety, efficiency, and reliability in applications where even minor deviations in volume or timing can significantly affect results.
Pound/Minute (Gasoline at 15.5°C) [lb/min]
Pound per minute [lb/min] is a unit of mass flow rate that measures the mass of a substance passing through a system every minute. When specified for gasoline at 15.5°C (approximately 60°F), it accounts for the density of gasoline under standard conditions, about 6.073 lb/gal (0.725 g/cm³). Expressed in lb/min, this unit is widely used in fuel handling, engine testing, and industrial fuel delivery systems where monitoring the mass of fuel over time is important. For example, an engine consuming 120 lb/min of gasoline can be analyzed to optimize fuel injection, improve efficiency, and reduce emissions. In pipelines or storage systems, lb/min allows operators to measure fuel transfer rates, manage inventory, and ensure safe and consistent delivery. Compared to lb/s, pound per minute provides a longer time-scale perspective, suitable for planning, monitoring, and operational reporting. Using lb/min for gasoline at 15.5°C allows engineers, technicians, and operators to track, regulate, and optimize fuel mass flow, ensuring efficient combustion, precise dosing, and reliable performance in automotive, industrial, and energy applications where fuel consistency is critical.
