Flow rate, also known as discharge rate, refers to the amount of fluid (liquid or gas) passing through a specific cross-section per unit of time. The International System of Units (SI) base unit for time is the second. The quantity of fluid can be measured in terms of volume or mass.In most cases, the quantity of fluid is represented by volume, followed by mass.

•Volumetric Flow Rate: When the quantity of fluid is represented by volume, the flow rate is called "volumetric flow rate". The standard unit for volumetric flow rate is cubic meters per second (m³/s).
•Mass Flow Rate: When the quantity of fluid is represented by mass, the flow rate is called "mass flow rate". The standard unit for mass flow rate is kilograms per second (kg/s).
