About Converting Cubic feet per Millisecond to Megaliter per Seconds
Cubic foot per Millisecond and Megaliter 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
megaliter per seconds = cubic feet per millisecond × 0.028316846592
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per millisecond equals 28.316846592 base units, and 1 megaliter per seconds equals 1000 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per millisecond-to-megaliter per seconds factor of 0.028316846592.
Simple example
1 ft3/ms × 0.02831684659 = 0.0283168466 ML/s
1 cubic foot per millisecond = 0.0283168466 megaliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 ft3/ms × 0.02831684659 = 1.699010796 ML/s
60 cubic feet per millisecond = 1.699010796 megaliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many megaliter per seconds are in 1 cubic foot per millisecond?
1 cubic foot per millisecond equals 0.0283168466 megaliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert cubic foot per millisecond to megaliter per seconds?
Multiply the cubic foot per millisecond value by 0.02831684659. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert megaliter per seconds back to cubic foot per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 megaliter per seconds equals 35.31466672 cubic feet per millisecond. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cubic foot per millisecond?
Cubic foot per Millisecond (ft3/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a megaliter per seconds?
Megaliter per Seconds (ML/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic foot per millisecond to megaliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic foot per millisecond and megaliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.02831684659 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.
