| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| L/min | Liter per minute |
| m³/s | Cubic meter per second |
Liters per minute to Cubic meters per second examples
1 L/min
1 L/min × 0.00001666667 = 0.00001666667 m³/s.
10 L/min
10 L/min × 0.00001666667 = 0.0001666667 m³/s.
100 L/min
100 L/min × 0.00001666667 = 0.001666667 m³/s.
Liters per minute compared with Cubic meters per second
One m³/s is 60,000 times as large as one L/min, so your number gets smaller when you convert liters per minute to cubic meters per second and bigger when you convert back. If the answer is not smaller than what you typed, you multiplied instead of dividing.
About liters per minute and cubic meters per second
Liter per minute (L/min): Litres per minute, about 1.667×10⁻⁵ m³/s. Cubic meter per second (m³/s): The SI unit of volumetric flow rate.
How to calculate Liters per minute to Cubic meters per second step by step
- Enter the value in L/min (the starting unit).
- Multiply by 0.00001666667, because 1 L/min = 0.00001666667 m³/s.
- The product is the value in m³/s. To go back, divide by 0.00001666667 or multiply by 60,000.
