Worth knowing

cubic foot per minute: Cfm is a volume rate, so the mass of air it represents changes with pressure, temperature and altitude. A compressor rated in scfm has been corrected to a standard reference condition, while acfm is the actual volume at the inlet, and the two differ substantially at altitude or on a hot day. There is also more than one standard condition in circulation: 68 degrees Fahrenheit at 14.696 psia is common in the compressed air trade and 70 degrees Fahrenheit in some HVAC standards. Mass flow in pounds per hour does not have this ambiguity. Full definition →

How the conversion works

Multiply by 2,118.880003 to go from cubic meter per second to cubic foot per minute, or divide by it to go back. Every conversion on this site routes through the SI value (m³/s) rather than a table of pairwise factors, so a round-trip returns exactly what you started with.

Going the other way? cubic foot per minute to cubic meter per second: 1 cfm = 0.0004719474432 m³/s.
