Convert Millilitres per minute to Kilolitres per hour
Convert Millilitres per minute (mL/min) to Kilolitres per hour (kL/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kL/h = mL/min × 6.000000000e-5
About Millilitres per minute
The millilitre per minute (mL/min) equals 10⁻⁶/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁸ m³/s, the standard flow rate unit for HPLC and preparative chromatography. A reverse-phase HPLC column (4.6 mm i.d.) operates at 1-2 mL/min; a cardiac output catheter measures 4 000-8 000 mL/min (= L/min). 1 mL/min ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁸ m³/s = 60 mL/h.
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.
