First convert gallons to a volumetric unit like cubic ft (ft^3)
7.48 gal per ft^3
Then divide the ft^3 quantity by the cross sectional area of the pipe (converted into square feet ft^2)
This will leave you with linear units of feet. This number of feet must travel past a point in the pipe in one minute to deliver a gallon.
You can then do the time conversion to obtain ft/sec from ft/min.
Consider a cylinder with a diameter equal to the pipe inside diameter. How tall would that cylinder have to be in order to hold a gallon of water. Its the same type of problem only with the added twist that the water is flowing past a point in a given amount of time.
Use this formula to convert gallons per minute to cubic feet per second:gallons per minute x 0.002228 = cubic feet per second. So; 500 x 0.002228 = about 1.114 cubic feet per second.
-- to convert the feet to inches, multiply by 12-- to convert the minute to second, divide by 60-- combining these operations, take (feet per minute) and multiply by (12/60) = 0.2
Conversion: cm per second x 1.969 = feet per minute
'F' (feet / minute) x (1 minute / 60 seconds) = (F / 60) (feet - minute / minute - second) = F/60 ft/sec -- Take the number of feet per minute. -- Divide it by 60. -- The answer is the number of feet per second.
The flow rate in cubic feet/second is (3*1.5*3) = 14.5 cubic ft/sec. According to Google, there are 6.229 Imperial gallons or 7.481 US gallons in 1 cubic foot. Therefore, the flow rate is 90.32 Imp gallons/sec or 108.47 US gallons/sec. If this many gallons flow per second, then (90.32 x 60) = 5419 Imp gallons flow per 1 minute, or equivalently 6508 US gallons per minute.
Use this formula to convert gallons per minute to cubic feet per second:gallons per minute x 0.002228 = cubic feet per second. So; 500 x 0.002228 = about 1.114 cubic feet per second.
6,000 US gallons per minute = 13.37 cubic feet per second.
For US gallons, use this equation: gallons per minute x 8.020833333 = cubic feet per hour750 gallons/minute x 8.020833333 = about 6,015.625 cubic feet per hour
-- to convert the feet to inches, multiply by 12-- to convert the minute to second, divide by 60-- combining these operations, take (feet per minute) and multiply by (12/60) = 0.2
Formula: cubic feet per hour x 7.481 = US gallons per hour (use 6.229 if you want to convert cubic feet to Imperial gallons)
Multiply cubic feet per second by 60 to get cubic feet per minute.
cubic feet per second x 60 = cubic feet per minute
Conversion: cm per second x 1.969 = feet per minute
'F' (feet / minute) x (1 minute / 60 seconds) = (F / 60) (feet - minute / minute - second) = F/60 ft/sec -- Take the number of feet per minute. -- Divide it by 60. -- The answer is the number of feet per second.
To convert 750 feet per second to miles per minute, first convert feet to miles by dividing by 5,280 (since 1 mile = 5,280 feet). Then convert seconds to minutes by dividing by 60 (since 1 minute = 60 seconds). So, 750 feet per second is equal to 0.142 miles per minute.

Conversion: feet per minute x 0.000003157 = miles per second
