About Converting Centiliter per Seconds to Deciliter per Hours
Centiliter per Seconds and Deciliter per Hours 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 hours = centiliter per seconds × 360
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 deciliter per hours equals 2.777778e-8 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per seconds-to-deciliter per hours factor of 360.
Simple example
1 cL/s × 360 = 360 dL/h
1 centiliter per seconds = 360 deciliter per hours.
Real-world example
60 cL/s × 360 = 21,600 dL/h
60 centiliter per seconds = 21,600 deciliter per hours.

Reverse conversion: Deciliter per Hours to Centiliter per Seconds
360 dL/h × 0.002777777778 = 1 cL/s
360 deciliter per hours = 1 centiliter per seconds.
centiliter per seconds = deciliter per hours × 0.00277777777778

Frequently asked questions
How many deciliter per hours are in 1 centiliter per seconds?
1 centiliter per seconds equals 360 deciliter per hours, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds to deciliter per hours?
Multiply the centiliter per seconds value by 360. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert deciliter per hours back to centiliter per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 deciliter per hours equals 0.0027777778 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 deciliter per hours?
Deciliter per Hours (dL/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per seconds to deciliter per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per seconds and deciliter per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 360 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.
