When a compressor pumps one CFM (cubic foot per minute), that means the intake port inhales one cubic foot of free air (air at atmospheric pressure, which is 0 psig) per minute. (Note: A CFM does not mean in any sense the compressed volume.) So the unit really measures the mass of air flowing per minute, not volume per minute, since a cubic foot of free air is a unit of mass.
This second scale has a mean and standard deviation that have been arbitrarily set. A z score, for example, is a raw score that has been transformed to a scale with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.
Z score and T score are used in statistics and are referred to as standard scores. They indicate how many SD an observation in a data is above or below the mean. Most commonly used in a z-test, z-score is similar to T score for a population. It is similarities between the two tests that confuse students. score and T score are used in statistics and are referred to as standard scores.
