This calculator determines the flow rate equivalence between liters per second (L/s) and acre inches per minute (ac-in/min). The relationship is: 1 ac-in/min = 1713.1692222222 L/s. An acre inch is the volume of water covering 1 acre (43,560 ft²) to a depth of 1 inch, equivalent to approximately 102,790.153 L, delivered per minute.
For example, a flow rate of 1713.1692222222 L/s equals 1 ac-in/min, and a flow rate of 1 L/s equals approximately 0.000584 ac-in/min.
Formulas:
L/s to ac-in/min: \( \text{ac-in/min} = \frac{\text{L/s}}{1713.1692222222} \)
ac-in/min to L/s: \( \text{L/s} = \text{ac-in/min} \times 1713.1692222222 \)
Example Calculation:
Use the form above to input a flow rate and select the unit (L/s or ac-in/min) to calculate the equivalent value in the other unit.
The following table provides examples of calculated values between L/s and ac-in/min:
| L/s | ac-in/min |
|---|---|
| 1713.17 | 1 |
| 1 | 0.000584 |
| 3426.34 | 2 |
| 856.58 | 0.5 |
The calculator uses the following units:
Results are provided in both units after calculation.
How do you calculate L/s from acre inches/minute?
To calculate L/s from ac-in/min, multiply the value in ac-in/min by 1713.1692222222. For example, 2 ac-in/min × 1713.1692222222 = 3426.3384444444 L/s.
How do you calculate acre inches/minute from L/s?
To calculate ac-in/min from L/s, divide the value in L/s by 1713.1692222222. For example, 856.58 L/s ÷ 1713.1692222222 ≈ 0.5 ac-in/min.
What is the flow rate of 1000 L/s in acre inches/minute?
For 1000 L/s: \( \text{ac-in/min} = \frac{1000}{1713.1692222222} \approx 0.5836 \, \text{ac-in/min} \).
