About Converting Hectoliter per Days to Hectoliter per Seconds
Hectoliter per Days and Hectoliter 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
hectoliter per seconds = hectoliter per days × 0.0000115740740741
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 hectoliter per days equals 0.00000115740740741 base units, and 1 hectoliter per seconds equals 0.1 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct hectoliter per days-to-hectoliter per seconds factor of 0.0000115740740741.
Simple example
1 hL/d × 0.00001157407407 = 0.0000115741 hL/s
1 hectoliter per days = 0.0000115741 hectoliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 hL/d × 0.00001157407407 = 0.0006944444 hL/s
60 hectoliter per days = 0.0006944444 hectoliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many hectoliter per seconds are in 1 hectoliter per days?
1 hectoliter per days equals 0.0000115741 hectoliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert hectoliter per days to hectoliter per seconds?
Multiply the hectoliter per days value by 0.00001157407407. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert hectoliter per seconds back to hectoliter per days?
Use the reverse factor: 1 hectoliter per seconds equals 86,400 hectoliter per days. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a hectoliter per days?
Hectoliter per Days (hL/d) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a hectoliter per seconds?
Hectoliter per Seconds (hL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the hectoliter per days to hectoliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both hectoliter per days and hectoliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00001157407407 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.
