About UK pints per hour
The UK pint per hour (pt/h) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/8/3600 ≈ 1.578×10⁻⁷ m³/s, used in British slow-infusion clinical records and historical dairy milk-flow measurements before metrication. An IV drip set at 100 mL/h equals ≈176 UK fl oz/h ≈ 8.8 UK pt/h. 1 UK pt/h ≈ 1.578×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
About Kilolitres per second
The kilolitre per second (kL/s) equals 1 m³/s, so 1 kL/s is identical to 1 m³/s. The term kilolitre is favoured in Australian and South African engineering over the equivalent cubic metre per second. Municipal water-main flow and stormwater-channel capacity are sometimes expressed in kL/s in these countries. 1 kL/s = 1 m³/s = 1 000 L/s ≈ 15 850 US gal/min.
