Convert Millilitres per minute to Litres per hour
Convert Millilitres per minute (mL/min) to Litres per hour (L/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
L/h = mL/min × 0.06
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 Litres per hour
The litre per hour (L/h) equals 10⁻³/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁷ m³/s, widely used in automotive fuel consumption (L/h), irrigation drip systems, and small pump specifications. A fuel cell vehicle running on hydrogen consumes ±2 L/h of liquid equivalent; a domestic water softener regeneration cycle uses 40-100 L/h of brine. 1 L/h ≈ 2.778×10⁻⁷ m³/s ≈ 0.2642 US gal/h.
