About Converting Gallon per Minutes to Kiloliter per Weeks
Gallon per Minutes and Kiloliter per Weeks 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
kiloliter per weeks = gallon per minutes × 38.1569507827
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 kiloliter per weeks equals 0.00000165343915344 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per minutes-to-kiloliter per weeks factor of 38.1569507827.
Simple example
1 gal/min × 38.15695078 = 38.15695078 kL/wk
1 gallon per minutes = 38.15695078 kiloliter per weeks.
Real-world example
60 gal/min × 38.15695078 = 2,289.417047 kL/wk
60 gallon per minutes = 2,289.417047 kiloliter per weeks.

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.
