About Converting Deciliter per Days to Gallon per Minutes
Deciliter per Days and Gallon per Minutes 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 minutes = deciliter per days × 0.0000183452814138
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 deciliter per days equals 1.157407e-9 base units, and 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct deciliter per days-to-gallon per minutes factor of 0.0000183452814138.
Simple example
1 dL/d × 0.00001834528141 = 0.0000183453 gal/min
1 deciliter per days = 0.0000183453 gallon per minutes.
Real-world example
60 dL/d × 0.00001834528141 = 0.0011007169 gal/min
60 deciliter per days = 0.0011007169 gallon per minutes.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallon per minutes are in 1 deciliter per days?
1 deciliter per days equals 0.0000183453 gallon per minutes, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert deciliter per days to gallon per minutes?
Multiply the deciliter per days value by 0.00001834528141. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per minutes back to deciliter per days?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per minutes equals 54,509.92969 deciliter per days. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a deciliter per days?
Deciliter per Days (dL/d) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per minutes?
Gallon per Minutes (gal/min) measures volumetric flow rate. The standard US unit for pump, plumbing, and irrigation flow-rate specifications. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
Is the deciliter per days to gallon per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both deciliter per days and gallon per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00001834528141 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.
