Pipes Hose and Tubing Flow

Liquid flow can be measured in volumetric or mass flow rates (such as litres per second or kg/s). These measurements can be converted between one another if the materials density is known. For liquids, other units are used depending upon the application and industry but might include gallons (U.S. liquid or imperial) per minute, liters per second, bushels per minute and, when describing river flows, cumecs (cubic metres per second) or acre-feet per day.
