Convert Microlitres per hour to Litres per second
Convert Microlitres per hour (µL/h) to Litres per second (L/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
L/s = µL/h × 2.777777778e-10
About Microlitres per hour
The microlitre per hour (µL/h) equals 10⁻⁹/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹³ m³/s, used in implantable drug-delivery pumps and osmotic mini-pumps for controlled-release pharmacokinetic studies. An Alzet osmotic pump for rodent experiments delivers 0.25-10 µL/h of dissolved drug directly into tissue. 1 µL/h ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹³ m³/s.
About Litres per second
The litre per second (L/s) equals 10⁻³ m³/s, the standard unit for municipal water-supply engineering, fire-fighting flows, and HVAC system air handling. A fire hydrant delivers 15-30 L/s; a household mains water connection is typically 0.1-0.5 L/s; a large building HVAC chilled-water loop circulates 50-200 L/s. 1 L/s = 10⁻³ m³/s = 3.6 m³/h ≈ 15.85 US gal/min.
