1 kl/min = 17.611470156250004 qt/s
1 qt/s = 0.05678117676309479 kl/min
Example: convert 21 kl/min to qt/s:
21 kl/min = 21 x 17.611470156250004 = 369.8408732812501 qt/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.
Quart per second
Definition: A quart per second (qt/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a fluid passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of fluid volume, measured in quarts, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'quart' is a unit of volume in both the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. Its historical origins can be traced back to traditional systems of liquid measurement. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Quarts per second is indicative of a high fluid flow rate, typically seen in high-volume pumping, rapid dispensing systems, and industrial fluid transfer applications.
