1 kl/min = 16666.666666666668 ml/s
1 ml/s = 0.000059999999999999995 kl/min
Example: convert 3 kl/min to ml/s:
3 kl/min = 3 x 16666.666666666668 = 50000 ml/s
Kilolitre per minute
Definition: A kilolitre per minute (kl/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate equal to 1,000 liters passing a point in one minute. It represents a medium to large volume of liquid flow over a minute.
History/origin: Similar to kl/s, kl/min is based on the metric unit of the litre and the 'kilo-' prefix. The 'per minute' component specifies the flow rate over a minute. The metric system and its units were standardized to provide consistent measurements in scientific and industrial applications.
Current use: Kl/min is used in scenarios requiring measurement of flow rates in the medium to high range. It is common in municipal water systems, industrial processes, and agricultural irrigation systems.
Millilitre per second
Definition: Milliliters per second (mL/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 milliliters per second.
History/origin: The milliliter (mL) is a derived unit of volume equal to one cubic centimeter (cm³). The 'per second' component signifies a flow rate.
Current use: mL/s is widely used in medical applications (e.g., infusion rates), laboratory experiments, and various industrial processes where flow rates are in the range of milliliters per second. It's essentially equivalent to cm³/s.
