Frequently asked questions
What is the source unit in this conversion?
The source unit is hectoliters per hour (hL/h). The Hectoliter (hL) is a unit of volume. The Hour (h) is a unit of time.
What is the destination unit in this conversion?
The destination unit is kiloliters per second (kL/s). The Kiloliter (kL) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
How do I convert hectoliters per hour to kiloliters per second?
Multiply the hectoliters per hour value by 2.77778e-5 to get kiloliters per second. For example, 10 hL/h × 2.77778e-5 = 0.000277778 kL/s.
Is the hectoliters per hour to kiloliters per second conversion exact?
It's exact under the SI-based volume and time definitions used here, since both units convert to cubic meters per second through fixed, non-rounded factors.
Where is this conversion commonly used?
Flow rate conversions like this are used in plumbing, HVAC, irrigation, chemical processing, fuel and water metering, and engineering flow calculations.
Can I convert kiloliters per second back to hectoliters per hour?
Yes. Divide the kiloliters per second value by 2.77778e-5 (or multiply by 36000) to get hectoliters per hour.

About this conversion
This page converts hectoliters per hour (hL/h) into kiloliters per second (kL/s), two units of volumetric flow rate.
The Hectoliter (hL) is a unit of volume. The Hour (h) is a unit of time.
The Kiloliter (kL) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
The formula is kL/s = hL/h × 2.77778e-5, based on the fixed relationship between these two flow rate units.
Flow rate is calculated as a volume unit divided by a time unit, so every combination of a volume unit and a time unit forms a valid, exact flow rate unit.
