How to Convert Kilolitre per minute to Cubic yard per secondCubic yard per second
1 kl/min = 0.021799156180979166 yd3/s
1 yd3/s = 45.8733352657269 kl/min
Example: convert 37 kl/min to yd3/s:
37 kl/min = 37 x 0.021799156180979166 = 0.8065687786962291 yd3/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.
Cubic yard per second
Definition: A cubic yard per second (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate representing the volume of material (often liquid or solid) that passes a point in one second, measured in cubic yards. It's used for very high-volume transfers.
History/origin: This unit combines the cubic yard, a larger volume unit, with the second as a time unit, used to measure very high flow volumes.
Current use: It's commonly used in large-scale civil engineering projects, such as dam construction, large earth-moving operations, and massive industrial processes.
