How to Convert Centilitre per second to Litre per secondLitre per second
1 cl/s = 0.01 l/s
1 l/s = 100 cl/s
Example: convert 5 cl/s to l/s:
5 cl/s = 5 x 0.01 = 0.05 l/s
Centilitre per second
Definition: Centiliters per second (cL/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time, measured in centiliters per second.
History/origin: The centiliter (cL) is a derived unit of volume equal to one hundredth of a liter (1 cL = 0.01 L). The 'per second' component signifies a flow rate.
Current use: cL/s is less commonly used than mL/s or L/s, but it can be convenient in certain applications where the flow rates fall within a specific range, often in chemistry or certain food processing contexts.
Litre per second
Definition: Liters per second (L/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time, measured in liters per second.
History/origin: The liter (L) is a metric unit of volume. Its use dates back to the French Revolution. The 'per second' component makes it a measure of flow rate.
Current use: L/s is a frequently used unit for measuring fluid flow rates in various applications, including water supply systems, industrial processes, and environmental monitoring.
