Kilolitre per minute [kl/min] to Cubic Centimeter per second [cm3/s] Converter
How to Convert Kilolitre per minute to Cubic Centimeter per second
1 kl/min = 16666.666666666668 cm3/s
1 cm3/s = 0.000059999999999999995 kl/min
Example: convert 10 kl/min to cm3/s:
10 kl/min = 10 x 16666.666666666668 = 166666.6666666667 cm3/s
Kilolitre per minute
Definition: A kilolitre per minute (kl/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate equal to 1,000 liters passing a point in one minute. It represents a medium to large volume of liquid flow over a minute.
History/origin: Similar to kl/s, kl/min is based on the metric unit of the litre and the 'kilo-' prefix. The 'per minute' component specifies the flow rate over a minute. The metric system and its units were standardized to provide consistent measurements in scientific and industrial applications.
Current use: Kl/min is used in scenarios requiring measurement of flow rates in the medium to high range. It is common in municipal water systems, industrial processes, and agricultural irrigation systems.
Cubic Centimeter per second
Definition: Cubic centimeters per second (cm³/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time. Specifically, it measures the volume in cubic centimeters that flows past a point in one second.
History/origin: Like mm³/s, it's derived from SI units. The cubic centimeter is a derived unit of volume (1 cm³ = 1 mL), and the 'per second' component indicates flow rate.
Current use: cm³/s is a commonly used unit for measuring small to medium flow rates in various scientific, engineering, and medical applications. It's often used interchangeably with milliliters per second (mL/s) since 1 cm³ = 1 mL.
