About Converting Deciliter per Minutes to Gallon per Seconds
Deciliter per Minutes 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 = deciliter per minutes × 0.00044028675393
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 gallon per seconds equals 0.003785411784 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct deciliter per minutes-to-gallon per seconds factor of 0.00044028675393.
Simple example
1 dL/min × 0.0004402867539 = 0.0004402868 gal/s
1 deciliter per minutes = 0.0004402868 gallon per seconds.
Real-world example
60 dL/min × 0.0004402867539 = 0.0264172052 gal/s
60 deciliter per minutes = 0.0264172052 gallon per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallon per seconds are in 1 deciliter per minutes?
1 deciliter per minutes equals 0.0004402868 gallon per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert deciliter per minutes to gallon per seconds?
Multiply the deciliter per minutes value by 0.0004402867539. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per seconds back to deciliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per seconds equals 2,271.24707 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 gallon per seconds?
Gallon per Seconds (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the deciliter per minutes to gallon per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both deciliter per minutes and gallon per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.0004402867539 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.
