How to Convert Millilitre per second to Kilolitre per hourKilolitre per hour
1 ml/s = 0.0036 kl/h
1 kl/h = 277.77777777777777 ml/s
Example: convert 78 ml/s to kl/h:
78 ml/s = 78 x 0.0036 = 0.2808 kl/h
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.
Kilolitre per hour
Definition: A kilolitre per hour (kl/h) is a unit of volumetric flow rate equal to 1,000 liters passing a point in one hour. It is used to measure relatively smaller volumes of liquid flow compared to kl/min or kl/s, but over a longer period.
History/origin: The unit stems from the litre, with 'kilo-' indicating 1000 litres. 'Per hour' denotes the flow rate over an hour. The development aligns with the need for standardised units to measure and control fluid transfer in various applications.
Current use: Kl/h is typically used in industrial processes, water treatment plants, and environmental monitoring where flow rates are lower and measured over longer durations. For example, measuring the flow rate of water in a small treatment plant or the flow rate of chemicals in a production line.
