This calculator determines the flow rate equivalence between liters per second (L/s) and cubic dekameters per hour (dam³/h). The relationship is: 1 dam³/h = 277.77777777778 L/s. A cubic dekameter (dam³) is a volume of 1,000 cubic meters (1 dam = 10 m), equivalent to 1,000,000 L, delivered per hour.
For example, a flow rate of 277.77777777778 L/s equals 1 dam³/h, and a flow rate of 1 L/s equals approximately 0.0036 dam³/h.
Formulas:
L/s to dam³/h: \( \text{dam}^3/\text{h} = \frac{\text{L/s}}{277.77777777778} \)
dam³/h to L/s: \( \text{L/s} = \text{dam}^3/\text{h} \times 277.77777777778 \)
Example Calculation:
Use the form above to input a flow rate and select the unit (L/s or dam³/h) to calculate the equivalent value in the other unit.
The following table provides examples of calculated values between L/s and dam³/h:
| L/s | dam³/h |
|---|---|
| 277.78 | 1 |
| 1 | 0.0036 |
| 555.56 | 2 |
| 138.89 | 0.5 |
The calculator uses the following units:
Results are provided in both units after calculation.
How do you calculate L/s from cubic dekameters/hour?
To calculate L/s from dam³/h, multiply the value in dam³/h by 277.77777777778. For example, 2 dam³/h × 277.77777777778 = 555.55555555556 L/s.
How do you calculate cubic dekameters/hour from L/s?
To calculate dam³/h from L/s, divide the value in L/s by 277.77777777778. For example, 138.89 L/s ÷ 277.77777777778 ≈ 0.5 dam³/h.
What is the flow rate of 100 L/s in cubic dekameters/hour?
For 100 L/s: \( \text{dam}^3/\text{h} = \frac{100}{277.77777777778} \approx 0.36 \, \text{dam}^3/\text{h} \).
