Volume Flow Rate Converter - m³/s to cfs Calculator

How to Convert Volume Flow Rate

The Volume Flow Rate Converter calculates the equivalent flow rate between cubic meters per second (m³/s) and cubic feet per second (cfs) using the following conversion factors:

From m³/s to cfs:

\( \text{Flow Rate (cfs)} = \text{Flow Rate (m}^3\text{/s)} \times 35.314666721489 \)

From cfs to m³/s:

\( \text{Flow Rate (m}^3\text{/s)} = \text{Flow Rate (cfs)} \times 0.028316846592 \)

Where:

  • \( \text{m}^3\text{/s} \): Cubic meters per second, a metric unit of volume flow rate commonly used in fluid dynamics.
  • \( \text{cfs} \): Cubic feet per second, a unit widely used in engineering and hydrology (equivalent to ft³/s).

Enter the flow rate and select the unit to convert between m³/s and cfs.

Using the Volume Flow Rate Converter

This converter is designed to assist with converting volume flow rates between m³/s and cfs, useful in fields like hydrology, fluid mechanics, and industrial engineering.

Input the flow rate value and select the unit (m³/s or cfs). The calculator will display the converted values in both units.

Example: Convert 3 m³/s to cfs.


  1. Flow Rate: \( 3 \, \text{m}^3\text{/s} \)
  2. Conversion: \( 3 \times 35.314666721489 = 105.94 \, \text{cfs} \)
  3. Result: \( 3 \, \text{m}^3\text{/s} = 105.94 \, \text{cfs} \)

Use this tool for quick and accurate conversions in engineering and scientific applications.
