Convert Cubic inches per hour to Kilolitres per minute
Convert Cubic inches per hour (in³/h) to Kilolitres per minute (kL/min) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kL/min = in³/h × 2.731177333e-7
About Cubic inches per hour
The cubic inch per hour (in³/h) equals 1.6387064×10⁻⁵/3600 ≈ 4.552×10⁻⁹ m³/s, appearing in US oilfield plunger-pump capacity datasheets and slow hydraulic-actuator specifications. It is also used in US ASTM leak-test standards where maximum allowable leakage past a valve seal is expressed in in³/h at rated pressure. 1 in³/h ≈ 4.552×10⁻⁹ m³/s.
About Kilolitres per minute
The kilolitre per minute (kL/min) equals 1/60 m³/s ≈ 0.016667 m³/s, used in Australian water-utility engineering for pump and pipeline sizing. Irrigation district delivery schedules and water-authority trunk-main flow records in Australia and New Zealand frequently use kL/min as an intermediate unit between L/s and ML/d. 1 kL/min = 1 000 L/min ≈ 264.2 US gal/min.
