Conversion Formula
µL/s = gpm × 63090.1964
About US gallons per minute
The US gallon per minute (gpm) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/60 ≈ 6.309×10⁻⁵ m³/s, the dominant volumetric flow unit in US plumbing, HVAC, and water-treatment industries. EPA showerhead standards are set at 2.5 gpm; residential water meters size at 3/4"-1" for 5-20 gpm; municipal water-distribution design uses hundreds to thousands of gpm. 1 gpm ≈ 6.309×10⁻⁵ m³/s = 3.785 L/min.
About Microlitres per second
The microlitre per second (µL/s) equals 10⁻⁹ m³/s, the working range of microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices and nano-HPLC pumps. Organ-on-a-chip perfusion bioreactors, droplet microfluidic systems, and capillary electrophoresis instruments operate at 0.1-100 µL/s. A syringe pump delivering 0.36 mL/h produces exactly 0.1 µL/s. 1 µL/s = 10⁻⁹ m³/s = 60 µL/min.
