81 qt/s = 81 x 3.4068706057856875 = 275.95651906864066 kl/h
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.
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.
