• 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 cufm = 1.699m³min^-1, 1 cufm = 1699 litres min^-1
• 1 gallon per minute = 0.07577 litre s^-1, 1 gallon per minute = 7.577x10-5m³s^-1

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