Cubic Centimeter per Second to Cubic Foot per Second (cm³/s to CFS)
Convert cm³/s to CFS — Flow Rate converter
Also written as cm3/s to CFS.
One cubic centimeter per second equals 0.0000353147 CFS, so to convert cubic centimeters per second to cubic feet per second you multiply the value by 0.0000353147. A cubic centimeter per second is smaller than a cubic foot per second — going the other way, 1 CFS = 28316.85 cm³/s. For example, 10 cm³/s = 0.0003531467 CFS and 50 cm³/s = 0.0017657333 CFS.
1 cm³/s = 0.0000353147 CFS

Which gallon, and which trade
The single most expensive mistake in flow conversion is the gallon. A US liquid gallon is 3.785411784 litres; an imperial gallon is 4.54609 litres. US GPM and imperial GPM differ by about 20%, and pump datasheets frequently do not say which one they mean. Check the manufacturer's country of origin before trusting a GPM figure.
Different trades default to different units for the same physical quantity: HVAC and compressed air work in CFM, plumbing and pumps in GPM or LPM, and process and water engineering in m³/h or L/s. A specification that mixes them is usually quoting different equipment, not different flows. On this page, 1 cm³/s = 0.0000353147 CFS.
