About Converting Gallons per Fortnight to Megaliter per Seconds
Gallon per Fortnight and Megaliter 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
megaliter per seconds = gallons per fortnight × 3.129474e-12
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per fortnight equals 3.129474e-9 base units, and 1 megaliter per seconds equals 1000 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per fortnight-to-megaliter per seconds factor of 3.129474e-12.
Simple example
1 gal/fn × 3.129474e-12 = 3.129474e-12 ML/s
1 gallon per fortnight = 3.129474e-12 megaliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 gal/fn × 3.129474e-12 = 1.877684e-10 ML/s
60 gallons per fortnight = 1.877684e-10 megaliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many megaliter per seconds are in 1 gallon per fortnight?
1 gallon per fortnight equals 3.129474e-12 megaliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert gallon per fortnight to megaliter per seconds?
Multiply the gallon per fortnight value by 3.129474e-12. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert megaliter per seconds back to gallon per fortnight?
Use the reverse factor: 1 megaliter per seconds equals 319,542,514,500 gallons per fortnight. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a gallon per fortnight?
Gallon per Fortnight (gal/fn) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a megaliter per seconds?
Megaliter per Seconds (ML/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per fortnight to megaliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per fortnight and megaliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 3.129474e-12 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.
