Centilitre per second [cl/s] to Cubic meter per second [m3/s] Converter

Quick Reference

1 Centilitre per second (cl/s) = 1.0000e-5 Cubic meter per second (m3/s)

1 Cubic meter per second (m3/s) = 100000 Centilitre per second (cl/s)

How to Convert Centilitre per second to Cubic meter per second

1 cl/s = 1.0000e-5 m3/s
1 m3/s = 100000 cl/s

To convert Centilitre per second to Cubic meter per second, divide the value by 100000 (equivalently, multiply by 1.0000e-5). To convert Cubic meter per second back to Centilitre per second, multiply by 100000.

Example: convert 10 cl/s to m3/s:
10 cl/s = 10 x 1.0000e-5 = 0.0001 m3/s

↔ Convert Cubic meter per second to Centilitre per second

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.

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.

Common pairs of Volumetric Flow Rate

Centilitre per second [cl/s] to Cubic meter per second [m3/s] Converter

What is 1 cl/s in m3/s?
1 Centilitre per second (cl/s) equals 0.00001 m3/s, and 1 m3/s equals 100,000 cl/s.
How do I convert Centilitre per second to Cubic meter per second?
Divide by 100,000: 10 cl/s ÷ 100,000 = 0.0001 m3/s. The converter above does it for any value, with the precision you choose.
What is 100 cl/s in m3/s?
100 cl/s = 0.001 m3/s. Common amounts are listed on this page, each with its own step-by-step page.
Is a Centilitre per second bigger than a Cubic meter per second?
No. 1 cl/s is only 0.00001 m3/s: it takes 100,000 cl/s to make 1 m3/s.
