Cubic metres per hour to Cubic feet per minute
1 cubic metre per hour = 0.58858 cubic feet per minute · 1 cfm = 1.699 m³/h
1 cubic metre per hour = 0.58858 cubic feet per minute
How it’s calculated
cfm = m³/h × 0.5885777787
- Multiply the value in cubic metres per hour by 0.5885777787.
- To go back, divide by 0.5885777787 (or multiply by 1.699010796).
- 1 m³/h = 0.5885777787 cfm · 1 cfm = 1.699010796 m³/h

Find the conversion factor
By definition 1 m³/h = 0.000277777777777778 m³/s and 1 cfm = 0.0004719474432 m³/s, so 1 cfm = 1.69901079552 m³/h. Source: BIPM SI Brochure (9th ed.) (SI prefixes and accepted units); NIST SP 811 / Handbook 44.
Multiply by the factor written as a fraction
Put m³/h in the denominator so it cancels, leaving cfm.
