About Converting Centiliter per Days to Deciliter per Seconds
Centiliter per Days and Deciliter 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
deciliter per seconds = centiliter per days × 0.00000115740740741
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiliter per days equals 1.157407e-10 base units, and 1 deciliter per seconds equals 0.0001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per days-to-deciliter per seconds factor of 0.00000115740740741.
Simple example
1 cL/d × 0.000001157407407 = 0.0000011574 dL/s
1 centiliter per days = 0.0000011574 deciliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 cL/d × 0.000001157407407 = 0.0000694444 dL/s
60 centiliter per days = 0.0000694444 deciliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many deciliter per seconds are in 1 centiliter per days?
1 centiliter per days equals 0.0000011574 deciliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per days to deciliter per seconds?
Multiply the centiliter per days value by 0.000001157407407. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert deciliter per seconds back to centiliter per days?
Use the reverse factor: 1 deciliter per seconds equals 864,000 centiliter per days. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiliter per days?
Centiliter per Days (cL/d) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a deciliter per seconds?
Deciliter per Seconds (dL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per days to deciliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per days and deciliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000001157407407 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.
