About Converting Gallon per Minutes to Centiliter per Hours
Gallon per Minutes and Centiliter per Hours 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. Gallon per Minutes is most often used for us residential and commercial plumbing fixture flow ratings.
Formula
centiliter per hours = gallon per minutes × 22712.470704
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, and 1 centiliter per hours equals 2.777778e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per minutes-to-centiliter per hours factor of 22712.470704.
Simple example
1 gal/min × 22712.4707 = 22,712.4707 cL/h
1 gallon per minutes = 22,712.4707 centiliter per hours.
Real-world example
60 gal/min × 22712.4707 = 1,362,748.242 cL/h
60 gallon per minutes = 1,362,748.242 centiliter per hours.
Conversion table

Frequently asked questions
How many centiliter per hours are in 1 gallon per minutes?
1 gallon per minutes equals 22,712.4707 centiliter per hours, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert gallon per minutes to centiliter per hours?
Multiply the gallon per minutes value by 22712.4707. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert centiliter per hours back to gallon per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 centiliter per hours equals 0.0000440287 gallon per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
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.
What is a centiliter per hours?
Centiliter per Hours (cL/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per minutes to centiliter per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per minutes and centiliter per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 22712.4707 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
Where is the gallon per minutes still used today?
United States (plumbing, pump, and irrigation industry standard)
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.
