About Converting Centiliters per Millisecond to Deciliter per Seconds
Centiliter per Millisecond 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 = centiliters per millisecond × 100
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiliter per millisecond equals 0.01 base units, and 1 deciliter per seconds equals 0.0001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per millisecond-to-deciliter per seconds factor of 100.
Simple example
1 cL/ms × 100 = 100 dL/s
1 centiliter per millisecond = 100 deciliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 cL/ms × 100 = 6,000 dL/s
60 centiliters per millisecond = 6,000 deciliter per seconds.
Conversion table
| Centiliter per Millisecond (cL/ms) | Deciliter per Seconds (dL/s) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 cL/ms | 10 dL/s |
| 1 cL/ms | 100 dL/s |
| 10 cL/ms | 1,000 dL/s |
| 60 cL/ms | 6,000 dL/s |
| 100 cL/ms | 10,000 dL/s |
| 1,000 cL/ms | 100,000 dL/s |
Reverse conversion: Deciliter per Seconds to Centiliter per Millisecond
100 dL/s × 0.01 = 1 cL/ms
100 deciliter per seconds = 1 centiliter per millisecond.
centiliters per millisecond = deciliter per seconds × 0.01

Frequently asked questions
How many deciliter per seconds are in 1 centiliter per millisecond?
1 centiliter per millisecond equals 100 deciliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per millisecond to deciliter per seconds?
Multiply the centiliter per millisecond value by 100. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert deciliter per seconds back to centiliter per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 deciliter per seconds equals 0.01 centiliters per millisecond. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiliter per millisecond?
Centiliter per Millisecond (cL/ms) 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 millisecond to deciliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per millisecond and deciliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 100 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.
