Explanation

Formula: Liters per Hour = Cubic Feet per Minute × 1,699.01. Why: the route converts both units through liters per second using the exact cubic-foot definition and the matching time-base scaling.

Cubic Feet per Minute (cfm): an imperial volumetric flow unit widely used for airflow, ventilation, and HVAC system sizing.

Liters per Hour (L/h): a slower volumetric flow unit often used for dosing systems, filtration, and low-rate process specifications.

This route is useful when translating between SI flow units and gallon- or cubic-foot-based reporting for pumps, piping, ventilation, and plant documentation.

This conversion is purely multiplicative because both units reduce through one liters-per-second flow basis with fixed unit-volume definitions and no offset.
