Explanation

Formula: Cubic Meters per Hour = Cubic Meters per Second × 3,600. Why: both units are normalized through liters per second, so the conversion combines fixed volume definitions with exact per-second, per-minute, or per-hour scaling.

Cubic Meters per Second (m³/s): a large SI volumetric flow unit used for high-capacity process, hydraulic, and infrastructure flow reporting.

Cubic Meters per Hour (m³/h): a common engineering flow unit used for plant equipment, air handling, and process system specifications.

This route is useful when moving between liter-scale and cubic-meter-scale SI flow reporting for process equipment, utilities, and engineering specifications.

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