How to convert cubic feet per minute to cubic meters per hour

These are volumetric flow rates. US and Imperial gallons per minute differ; gas volumes quoted at standard conditions also need their reference temperature and pressure before comparison with actual flow.

Formula
m³/h = CFM × 1.699010796

One cubic foot per minute is 1.699010796 cubic meters per hour, so a single multiplication converts any value.

Example
16.9901 m³/h ≈ 10 × 1.699010796

Sources and precision

Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
