Cubic metres per hour (m³/h)
Kilolitres per day (kL/d)

Conversion Formula

kL/d = m³/h × 24

About Cubic metres per hour

The cubic metre per hour (m³/h) equals 1/3600 m³/s ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁴ m³/s, the dominant volumetric flow unit in European process engineering, HVAC, and water treatment. Pump datasheet curves, heat-exchanger sizing software, and wastewater-treatment design all use m³/h as the standard. A domestic water pump runs at 3-8 m³/h; a municipal WWTP inlet pump handles 500-5 000 m³/h. 1 m³/h ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁴ m³/s = 1 000 L/h.

About Kilolitres per day

The kilolitre per day (kL/d) equals 1/86400 ≈ 1.157×10⁻⁵ m³/s, the standard unit for per-household and per-property water-consumption billing in Australia. Sydney Water and other Australian utilities charge tariffs per kL/d consumed; a typical Australian household uses 0.6-1.0 kL/d. 1 kL/d = 1 m³/d ≈ 264.2 US gal/d.
