About Converting Cubic inch per Seconds to Centiliter per Seconds
Cubic inch per Seconds and Centiliter 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
centiliter per seconds = cubic inch per seconds × 1.6387064
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic inch per seconds equals 0.000016387064 base units, and 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.00001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic inch per seconds-to-centiliter per seconds factor of 1.6387064.
Simple example
1 in3/s × 1.6387064 = 1.6387064 cL/s
1 cubic inch per seconds = 1.6387064 centiliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 in3/s × 1.6387064 = 98.322384 cL/s
60 cubic inch per seconds = 98.322384 centiliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many centiliter per seconds are in 1 cubic inch per seconds?
1 cubic inch per seconds equals 1.6387064 centiliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert cubic inch per seconds to centiliter per seconds?
Multiply the cubic inch per seconds value by 1.6387064. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds back to cubic inch per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.6102374409 cubic inch per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a cubic inch per seconds?
Cubic inch per Seconds (in3/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a centiliter per seconds?
Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic inch per seconds to centiliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both cubic inch per seconds and centiliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1.6387064 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.
