Litre per second [l/s] to Decilitre per second [dl/s] Converter

Quick Reference

1 Litre per second (l/s) = 10 Decilitre per second (dl/s)

1 Decilitre per second (dl/s) = 0.1 Litre per second (l/s)

How to Convert Litre per second to Decilitre per second

1 l/s = 10 dl/s
1 dl/s = 0.1 l/s

To convert Litre per second to Decilitre per second, multiply the value by 10. To convert Decilitre per second back to Litre per second, divide by 10.

Example: convert 10 l/s to dl/s:
10 l/s = 10 x 10 = 100 dl/s

↔ Convert Decilitre per second to Litre per second

Litre per second

Definition: Liters per second (L/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 liters per second.

History/origin: The liter (L) is a metric unit of volume. Its use dates back to the French Revolution. The 'per second' component makes it a measure of flow rate.

Current use: L/s is a frequently used unit for measuring fluid flow rates in various applications, including water supply systems, industrial processes, and environmental monitoring.

Decilitre per second

Definition: Deciliters per second (dL/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 deciliters per second.

History/origin: The deciliter (dL) is a derived unit of volume equal to one tenth of a liter (1 dL = 0.1 L). The 'per second' component signifies a flow rate.

Current use: dL/s is not as common as L/s or mL/s. It might be used in some specific industrial applications or in academic settings for experiments involving medium-sized fluid volumes per second.

Litre per second [l/s] to Decilitre per second [dl/s] Converter

What is 1 l/s in dl/s?
1 Litre per second (l/s) equals 10 dl/s, and 1 dl/s equals 0.1 l/s.
How do I convert Litre per second to Decilitre per second?
Multiply by 10: 10 l/s × 10 = 100 dl/s. The converter above does it for any value, with the precision you choose.
What is 100 l/s in dl/s?
100 l/s = 1,000 dl/s. Common amounts are listed on this page, each with its own step-by-step page.
Is a Litre per second bigger than a Decilitre per second?
Yes. 1 l/s = 10 dl/s, so the same quantity becomes a larger number when written in dl/s.
