About Converting Decaliter per Seconds to Gallon per Seconds
Decaliter per Seconds and Gallon 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
gallon per seconds = decaliter per seconds × 2.64172052358
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 decaliter per seconds equals 0.01 base units, and 1 gallon per seconds equals 0.003785411784 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct decaliter per seconds-to-gallon per seconds factor of 2.64172052358.
Simple example
1 daL/s × 2.641720524 = 2.641720524 gal/s
1 decaliter per seconds = 2.641720524 gallon per seconds.
Real-world example
60 daL/s × 2.641720524 = 158.5032314 gal/s
60 decaliter per seconds = 158.5032314 gallon per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallon per seconds are in 1 decaliter per seconds?
1 decaliter per seconds equals 2.641720524 gallon per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert decaliter per seconds to gallon per seconds?
Multiply the decaliter per seconds value by 2.641720524. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per seconds back to decaliter per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per seconds equals 0.3785411784 decaliter per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a decaliter per seconds?
Decaliter per Seconds (daL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per seconds?
Gallon per Seconds (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the decaliter per seconds to gallon per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both decaliter per seconds and gallon per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 2.641720524 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.
