Quick Reference

1 Kilolitre per hour (kl/h) = 27.77777778 Centilitre per second (cl/s)

1 Centilitre per second (cl/s) = 0.036 Kilolitre per hour (kl/h)

How to Convert Kilolitre per hour to Centilitre per second

1 kl/h = 27.77777778 cl/s
1 cl/s = 0.036 kl/h

To convert Kilolitre per hour to Centilitre per second, multiply the value by 27.77777778. To convert Centilitre per second back to Kilolitre per hour, divide by 27.77777778.

Example: convert 10 kl/h to cl/s:
10 kl/h = 10 x 27.77777778 = 277.7777778 cl/s

↔ Convert Centilitre per second to Kilolitre per hour

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.

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.
