Quick answer

1 m³/h is approximately 0.588578 CFM. Multiply m³/h by 0.588578 to get cubic feet per minute; for example, 100 m³/h is about 58.8578 CFM. This is a unit conversion at the same reference conditions, not a conversion to SCFM.

How to use

Enter the known values, check the selected units and assumptions, then calculate. Compare the result with the worked example. Copy, print or export the table when you need a record. Choose source and target units before entering one value or a list. One cubic foot is 0.3048 cubed cubic metres. Multiplying this by 60 turns CFM into m³/h; dividing performs the reverse conversion. L/s and L/min provide additional equivalents.

Formula and method

CFM = m³/h / (60 × 0.3048³); m³/h = CFM × 60 × 0.3048³

Worked example

100 m³/h ≈ 58.8578 CFM; 100 CFM ≈ 169.9011 m³/h

Assumptions and limits

This converts volumetric units at the same reference conditions. It does not convert actual flow to SCFM or normalize temperature, pressure or humidity. It also does not determine fan performance against system resistance.
