There was an error in the formula provided. Please use the following.
If using Method 1: Flow Volume (cfs) = Bottle size (liters) * 0.03532 (convert to cf)/fill time (seconds) If using Method 2: Flow Volume (cfs) = fl_depth (feet) * fl_width (feet) * fl_length (feet)/fill travel time (seconds)

In either case convert to GPM using: Flow volume (gpm) = Flow volumee (cfs) * 448.8
