Kilolitre per hour [kl/h] to Pint per second [pnt/s] Converter
How to Convert Kilolitre per hour to Pint per second
1 kl/h = 0.5870490052083334 pnt/s
1 pnt/s = 1.7034353028928437 kl/h
Example: convert 10 kl/h to pnt/s:
10 kl/h = 10 x 0.5870490052083334 = 5.870490052083333 pnt/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.
Pint per second
Definition: A pint per second (pnt/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 pints, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'pint' 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: Pints per second is generally used in situations where relatively large volumes are being transferred quickly. This could be found in industrial pumping systems or rapid filling processes.
