About Converting Gallon per Minutes to Megaliter per Decades
Gallon per Minutes and Megaliter per Decades 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
megaliter per decades = gallon per minutes × 19.9093429947
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 megaliter per decades equals 0.00000316887385068 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per minutes-to-megaliter per decades factor of 19.9093429947.
Simple example
1 gal/min × 19.90934299 = 19.90934299 ML/decade
1 gallon per minutes = 19.90934299 megaliter per decades.
Real-world example
60 gal/min × 19.90934299 = 1,194.56058 ML/decade
60 gallon per minutes = 1,194.56058 megaliter per decades.

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 megaliter per decades?
Megaliter per Decades (ML/decade) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per minutes to megaliter per decades conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per minutes and megaliter per decades are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 19.90934299 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.
