What is L/s to Liter/Hour Calculation

This calculator determines the flow rate equivalence between liters per second (L/s) and liters per hour (L/h). The relationship is: 1 L/h = 0.00027777777777778 L/s. One liter per hour represents a small flow rate when converted to seconds (1 hour = 3,600 seconds).

For example, a flow rate of 1 L/s equals 3,600 L/h, and a flow rate of 1 L/h equals approximately 0.000278 L/s.

How to Calculate L/s and Liter/Hour

Formulas:

L/s to L/h: \( \text{L/h} = \frac{\text{L/s}}{0.00027777777777778} = \text{L/s} \times 3600 \)

L/h to L/s: \( \text{L/s} = \text{L/h} \times 0.00027777777777778 = \frac{\text{L/h}}{3600} \)

Example Calculation:

• If input is 1 L/s:
• \( \text{L/h} = 1 \times 3600 = 3600 \, \text{L/h} \)
• If input is 1000 L/h:
• \( \text{L/s} = 1000 \times 0.00027777777777778 \approx 0.2778 \, \text{L/s} \)

Use the form above to input a flow rate and select the unit (L/s or L/h) 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.
• Liters per Hour (L/h): A unit representing volume flow rate, where 1 L/h = 0.00027777777777778 L/s.

Results are provided in both units after calculation.

FAQs

How do you calculate L/s from liters/hour?

To calculate L/s from L/h, multiply the value in L/h by 0.00027777777777778 (or divide by 3,600). For example, 1000 L/h × 0.00027777777777778 ≈ 0.2778 L/s.

How do you calculate liters/hour from L/s?

To calculate L/h from L/s, multiply the value in L/s by 3,600. For example, 0.5 L/s × 3,600 = 1,800 L/h.

What is the flow rate of 2 L/s in liters/hour?

For 2 L/s: \( \text{L/h} = 2 \times 3600 = 7200 \, \text{L/h} \).
