Convert Kilolitres per hour to Microlitres per second
Convert Kilolitres per hour (kL/h) to Microlitres per second (µL/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µL/s = kL/h × 277777.7778
About Kilolitres per hour
The kilolitre per hour (kL/h) equals 1/3600 m³/s ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁴ m³/s, identical to m³/h. It is used interchangeably with m³/h in Australian, New Zealand, and South African process-engineering practice. Pump datasheets from these markets quote capacity in kL/h; water-meter billing in rural areas uses kL/h for irrigation allocation. 1 kL/h = 1 m³/h = 1 000 L/h.
About Microlitres per second
The microlitre per second (µL/s) equals 10⁻⁹ m³/s, the working range of microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices and nano-HPLC pumps. Organ-on-a-chip perfusion bioreactors, droplet microfluidic systems, and capillary electrophoresis instruments operate at 0.1-100 µL/s. A syringe pump delivering 0.36 mL/h produces exactly 0.1 µL/s. 1 µL/s = 10⁻⁹ m³/s = 60 µL/min.
