does anyone know how to convert CFM in to L/S. trying to find out the maximum volume in ltrs a inline fan puts out. its a 200CFM fan
CFM= cubic feet per minute
L/S = ltrs per sec
thanx

In round figures, one cubic foot is 27 litres. One minute is 60 seconds.
200cf/min x 27l/cf = 5400 l/min
5400 l/min / 60s/min = 90 l/s
Not gonna supercharge even a Suzuki motor.

I done the maths and
1 Cubic Foot = ~28 Litres (28.094 ltr exact)
so divide 28 by 60 seconds and presto.
1 CF/M = 28 Ltr/M = 0.466666666666 Ltr/Sec
