What is L/s to Cubic Kilometer/Minute Calculation

This calculator determines the flow rate equivalence between liters per second (L/s) and cubic kilometers per minute (km³/min). The relationship is: 1 km³/min = 16,666,666,666.667 L/s. A cubic kilometer is a massive volume unit (1,000,000,000 m³ or 1,000,000,000,000 L), converted to a flow rate per minute.

For example, a flow rate of 16,666,666,666.667 L/s equals 1 km³/min, and a flow rate of 1 L/s equals approximately 6.0 × 10⁻¹¹ km³/min.

How to Calculate L/s and Cubic Kilometer/Minute

Formulas:

L/s to km³/min: \( \text{km}^3/\text{min} = \frac{\text{L/s}}{16666666666.667} \)

km³/min to L/s: \( \text{L/s} = \text{km}^3/\text{min} \times 16666666666.667 \)

Example Calculation:

• If input is 16,666,666,666.667 L/s:
• \( \text{km}^3/\text{min} = \frac{16666666666.667}{16666666666.667} = 1 \, \text{km}^3/\text{min} \)
• If input is 0.5 km³/min:
• \( \text{L/s} = 0.5 \times 16666666666.667 = 8333333333.3335 \, \text{L/s} \)

Use the form above to input a flow rate and select the unit (L/s or km³/min) to calculate the equivalent value in the other unit.

Flow Rate Units

The calculator uses the following units:

• Liters per Second (L/s): A standard unit for measuring flow rate in fluid dynamics.
• Cubic Kilometers per Minute (km³/min): A unit representing an extremely large volume flow rate, where 1 km³/min = 16,666,666,666.667 L/s.

Results are provided in both units after calculation.

FAQs

How do you calculate L/s from cubic kilometers/minute?

To calculate L/s from km³/min, multiply the value in km³/min by 16,666,666,666.667. For example, 0.5 km³/min × 16,666,666,666.667 = 8,333,333,333.3335 L/s.

How do you calculate cubic kilometers/minute from L/s?

To calculate km³/min from L/s, divide the value in L/s by 16,666,666,666.667. For example, 4,166,666,666.67 L/s ÷ 16,666,666,666.667 ≈ 0.25 km³/min.

What is the flow rate of 10,000,000,000 L/s in cubic kilometers/minute?

For 10,000,000,000 L/s: \( \text{km}^3/\text{min} = \frac{10000000000}{16666666666.667} \approx 0.6 \, \text{km}^3/\text{min} \).
