1 gal/h = 0.0010515032733906444 l/s
1 l/s = 951.0193884375001 gal/h
Example: convert 78 gal/h to l/s:
78 gal/h = 78 x 0.0010515032733906444 = 0.08201725532447027 l/s
Gallon per hour
Definition: Gallons per hour (gal/h) is a flow rate unit that expresses how many gallons of fluid pass a point in one hour. It is suitable for measuring slow flow rates over extended durations.
History/origin: The unit is built upon the standard gallon unit of volume combined with a 'per hour' timeframe, useful for situations where flow rates are relatively slow.
Current use: Applications include measuring fuel consumption rates in vehicles, low-flow chemical dosing, and the monitoring of slow leaks in fluid systems.
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.
