1 m3/h = 0.2777777777777778 l/s
1 l/s = 3.5999999999999996 m3/h
Example: convert 7 m3/h to l/s:
7 m3/h = 7 x 0.2777777777777778 = 1.9444444444444446 l/s
Cubic meter per hour
Definition: A cubic meter per hour (m3/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one hour. It is used to measure smaller volumes of fluid or gas flow compared to m3/min or m3/s, but over a longer period.
History/origin: Based on the cubic meter as the unit of volume, and 'per hour' denoting the time frame. The unit's creation addresses the need for quantifying lower flow rates in various industrial and environmental applications.
Current use: M3/h is common in heating and cooling systems, small-scale industrial processes, and in monitoring environmental parameters where slower rates of flow are typical. Examples include measuring gas consumption in households, flow rates in chemical processing and measuring the flow of water in heating 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.
