Volumetric Flow Rate
Volumetric flow rate, abbreviated as Q, also called flow rate, is the amount of fluid that flows in a given time past a specific point or you could say the actual volume flow.

\(\large{ Q }\) = volumetric flow rate | \(\large{\frac{ft^3}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m^3}{s}}\) |
\(\large{ A_c }\) = area cross-section | \(\large{ft^2}\) | \(\large{m^2}\) |
\(\large{ v }\) = velocity | \(\large{\frac{ft}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m}{s}}\) |
