Convert Kilolitres per minute to Cubic yards per hour
Convert Kilolitres per minute (kL/min) to Cubic yards per hour (yd³/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
yd³/h = kL/min × 78.47703716
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.
About Cubic yards per hour
The cubic yard per hour (yd³/h) equals 0.764554857984/3600 ≈ 2.124×10⁻⁴ m³/s, the standard unit for concrete pump output, earthwork compaction flow, and US dredging production rate reporting. A concrete pump truck delivers 30-80 yd³/h on a high-rise pour; a cutter-suction dredger handles 100-500 yd³/h in harbour maintenance. 1 yd³/h ≈ 2.124×10⁻⁴ m³/s.
