Deciliters per Millisecond to Liters per Millisecond Converter — dL/ms to L/ms
Convert Deciliter per Millisecond (dL/ms) to Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) using the exact conversion factor (1 deciliter per millisecond = 0.1 liter per millisecond). See the formula, worked examples, and conversion table.

About Converting Deciliters per Millisecond to Liters per Millisecond
Deciliter per Millisecond and Liter per Millisecond 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
liters per millisecond = deciliters per millisecond × 0.1
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 deciliter per millisecond equals 0.1 base units, and 1 liter per millisecond equals 1 base unit, so dividing one by the other gives the direct deciliter per millisecond-to-liter per millisecond factor of 0.1.
Simple example
1 dL/ms × 0.1 = 0.1 L/ms
1 deciliter per millisecond = 0.1 liters per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 dL/ms × 0.1 = 6 L/ms
60 deciliters per millisecond = 6 liters per millisecond.
Conversion table
| Deciliter per Millisecond (dL/ms) | Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 dL/ms | 0.01 L/ms |
| 1 dL/ms | 0.1 L/ms |
| 10 dL/ms | 1 L/ms |
| 60 dL/ms | 6 L/ms |
| 100 dL/ms | 10 L/ms |
| 1,000 dL/ms | 100 L/ms |
Reverse conversion: Liter per Millisecond to Deciliter per Millisecond
0.1 L/ms × 10 = 1 dL/ms
0.1 liters per millisecond = 1 deciliter per millisecond.
deciliters per millisecond = liters per millisecond × 10

Frequently asked questions
How many liters per millisecond are in 1 deciliter per millisecond?
1 deciliter per millisecond equals 0.1 liters per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert deciliter per millisecond to liter per millisecond?
Multiply the deciliter per millisecond value by 0.1. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert liter per millisecond back to deciliter per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 liter per millisecond equals 10 deciliters per millisecond. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a deciliter per millisecond?
Deciliter per Millisecond (dL/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a liter per millisecond?
Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the deciliter per millisecond to liter per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both deciliter per millisecond and liter per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.1 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.
