About Converting Deciliter per Minutes to Cubic yard per Seconds
Deciliter per Minutes and Cubic yard 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
cubic yard per seconds = deciliter per minutes × 0.00000217991769886
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 deciliter per minutes equals 0.00000166666666667 base units, and 1 cubic yard per seconds equals 0.764554857984 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct deciliter per minutes-to-cubic yard per seconds factor of 0.00000217991769886.
Simple example
1 dL/min × 0.000002179917699 = 0.0000021799 yd3/s
1 deciliter per minutes = 0.0000021799 cubic yard per seconds.
Real-world example
60 dL/min × 0.000002179917699 = 0.0001307951 yd3/s
60 deciliter per minutes = 0.0001307951 cubic yard per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many cubic yard per seconds are in 1 deciliter per minutes?
1 deciliter per minutes equals 0.0000021799 cubic yard per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert deciliter per minutes to cubic yard per seconds?
Multiply the deciliter per minutes value by 0.000002179917699. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cubic yard per seconds back to deciliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cubic yard per seconds equals 458,732.9148 deciliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a deciliter per minutes?
Deciliter per Minutes (dL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic yard per seconds?
Cubic yard per Seconds (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the deciliter per minutes to cubic yard per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both deciliter per minutes and cubic yard per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000002179917699 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.
