/Second [yd³/s]
Cubic yard per second [yd³/s] is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of material or fluid passing through a system every second, based on the cubic yard. One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet or approximately 0.7646 cubic meters. Expressed per second, yd³/s is commonly used in high-flow industrial processes, large-scale construction, water resource management, and flood control systems where rapid monitoring of substantial volumes is essential. For example, a dam releasing 10 yd³/s discharges ten cubic yards of water every second, allowing engineers to manage reservoir levels and downstream flow safely. In industrial operations, it can monitor slurry or bulk material flows in real time to maintain efficiency and prevent overflows. Compared to yd³/min or yd³/h, cubic yard per second provides instantaneous, high-resolution measurement, enabling immediate adjustments for optimal system performance. It is also used in irrigation channels, dredging, and municipal water distribution to handle large volumes accurately. Using cubic yards per second allows engineers, operators, and planners to measure, control, and optimize volumetric flow, ensuring safety, efficiency, and reliable operation in critical large-scale fluid and material systems.
)/Day [kbarrel (US)/d]
Kilobarrel per day (US) [kbarrel (US)/d] is a unit of volumetric flow rate commonly used in the oil and gas industry to measure the daily production or transport of crude oil and petroleum products. One kilobarrel equals 1,000 US barrels, and one US barrel is approximately 159 liters, so kbarrel (US)/d represents the volume of oil flowing each day in thousands of barrels. This unit is widely used by oil companies, refineries, and energy analysts to track production rates, pipeline capacities, and overall supply levels. For example, an oil field producing 50 kbarrel (US)/d delivers 50,000 barrels of crude oil per day, which helps planners estimate revenue, storage needs, and transportation logistics. It is also used to compare production from different oil fields, monitor consumption trends, and plan refinery operations. Compared to smaller units like barrels per hour, kilobarrel per day provides a macro-level perspective, suitable for reporting, analysis, and strategic planning in the petroleum sector. Using kbarrel (US)/d allows energy professionals to assess, manage, and optimize large-scale oil flow, ensuring efficient production, transportation, and supply chain management.
