CFM to CIM | ft3/min to in3/min Calculator
🔄 CFM ↔ CIM Converter
Contents
Conversion Formulas:
- 1 CFM = 1,728 CIM
- 1 CIM = 0.0005787 CFM
This conversion accounts for:
- 1 cubic foot = 1,728 cubic inches
- Both units are per minute, so only the volume conversion is needed
- 1 CFM = 1,728 CIM
| CFM | CIM |
|---|---|
| 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 1,728 |
| 10 | 17,280 |
| 100 | 172,800 |
| 1000 | 1,728,000 |
If you are an engineer want to make sure the right airflow for a big industrial facility. The ventilation system measures airflow in CFM, but the cooling equipment manufacturer lists it in CIM.
Now, definitely, you need to convert from one unit to other unit
How To Convert From CFM To CIM
Because, 1 cubic foot contains 1,728 cubic inches, the conversion formula is:
Let’s say the cooling system requires 50 CFM of airflow. Using the formula:
So, the system moves 86,400 cubic inches of air per minute.
The cooling unit works best at 90,000 CIM. The ventilation system provides 86,400 CIM, which is within the right range.
Now, the engineer is satisfied his cooling system will run efficiently without any issues.
