How to Convert Cubic meter per second to Centilitre per secondCentilitre per second
1 m3/s = 100000 cl/s
1 cl/s = 0.00001 m3/s
Example: convert 14 m3/s to cl/s:
14 m3/s = 14 x 100000 = 1400000 cl/s
Cubic meter per second
Definition: A cubic meter per second (m3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic meter of substance passing a point in one second. It is used to measure very large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: The cubic meter is a metric unit derived from the meter, a fundamental unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). 'Per second' indicates the rate of flow. Its origins lie in the development of standardized metric units for scientific and engineering applications.
Current use: M3/s is commonly used in hydrology (river flow measurement), large-scale industrial processes, and in the operation of hydroelectric power plants where the movement of large volumes of water is critical.
Centilitre per second
Definition: Centiliters per second (cL/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 centiliters per second.
History/origin: The centiliter (cL) is a derived unit of volume equal to one hundredth of a liter (1 cL = 0.01 L). The 'per second' component signifies a flow rate.
Current use: cL/s is less commonly used than mL/s or L/s, but it can be convenient in certain applications where the flow rates fall within a specific range, often in chemistry or certain food processing contexts.
