• 1 ft³s⁻¹ = 0.028316847m³s⁻¹, 1 ft³s⁻¹ = 1 cusec
• 1 ft³s⁻¹ = 28.316847 litre s⁻¹, 1 cubic foot per minute = 1 cufm
• 1 cusec = 1.699 m³min⁻¹, 1 cusec = 1699 litres min⁻¹
• 1 gallon per minute = 0.07577 litre s⁻¹, 1 gallon per minute = 7.577x10-5 m³s⁻¹

(These are UK not US gallons: 1 imperial gallon = 1.201 US gallons)
