Convert Kilolitres per day to Acre-feet per second
Convert Kilolitres per day (kL/d) to Acre-feet per second (ac-ft/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
ac-ft/s = kL/d × 9.383254558e-9
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.
About Acre-feet per second
The acre-foot per second (ac-ft/s) equals 1233.48183754752 m³/s, an enormous unit representing the flow that would fill a football-field-sized area to 1 ft depth every second. It appears in descriptions of exceptionally large dam-break flood waves and major river-system extreme events. The 1976 Teton Dam collapse peak outflow was estimated at ≈65 000 ft³/s ≈ 1.49 ac-ft/s. 1 ac-ft/s = 1 233.48 m³/s.
