About Converting Oil barrel per Hours to Imperial quart per Seconds
Oil barrel per Hours and Imperial quart per Seconds both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
imperial quart per seconds = oil barrel per hours × 0.038858128616
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 oil barrel per hours equals 0.00004416313748 base units, and 1 imperial quart per seconds equals 0.0011365225 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct oil barrel per hours-to-imperial quart per seconds factor of 0.038858128616.
Simple example
1 bbl/h × 0.03885812862 = 0.0388581286 imp qt/s
1 oil barrel per hours = 0.0388581286 imperial quart per seconds.
Real-world example
60 bbl/h × 0.03885812862 = 2.331487717 imp qt/s
60 oil barrel per hours = 2.331487717 imperial quart per seconds.

Multiply the oil barrel per hours value by 0.03885812862. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert imperial quart per seconds back to oil barrel per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 imperial quart per seconds equals 25.73464126 oil barrel per hours. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a oil barrel per hours?
Oil barrel per Hours (bbl/h) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a imperial quart per seconds?
Imperial quart per Seconds (imp qt/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the oil barrel per hours to imperial quart per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both oil barrel per hours and imperial quart per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.03885812862 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
