About Converting Centiliter per Seconds to Cubic Centimeter per Seconds
Centiliter per Seconds and Cubic Centimeter 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
cubic centimeter per seconds = centiliter per seconds × 10
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.00001 base units, and 1 cubic centimeter per seconds equals 0.000001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per seconds-to-cubic centimeter per seconds factor of 10.
Simple example
1 cL/s × 10 = 10 cm3/s
1 centiliter per seconds = 10 cubic centimeter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 cL/s × 10 = 600 cm3/s
60 centiliter per seconds = 600 cubic centimeter per seconds.
Conversion table
| Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) | Cubic Centimeter per Seconds (cm3/s) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 cL/s | 1 cm3/s |
| 1 cL/s | 10 cm3/s |
| 10 cL/s | 100 cm3/s |
| 60 cL/s | 600 cm3/s |
| 100 cL/s | 1,000 cm3/s |
| 1,000 cL/s | 10,000 cm3/s |
Reverse conversion: Cubic Centimeter per Seconds to Centiliter per Seconds
10 cm3/s × 0.1 = 1 cL/s
10 cubic centimeter per seconds = 1 centiliter per seconds.
centiliter per seconds = cubic centimeter per seconds × 0.1

Frequently asked questions
How many cubic centimeter per seconds are in 1 centiliter per seconds?
1 centiliter per seconds equals 10 cubic centimeter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds to cubic centimeter per seconds?
Multiply the centiliter per seconds value by 10. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cubic centimeter per seconds back to centiliter per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cubic centimeter per seconds equals 0.1 centiliter per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiliter per seconds?
Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic centimeter per seconds?
Cubic Centimeter per Seconds (cm3/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per seconds to cubic centimeter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per seconds and cubic centimeter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 10 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.
