About Converting Hectoliter per Minutes to Kiloliters per Millisecond
Hectoliter per Minutes and Kiloliter per Millisecond 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
kiloliters per millisecond = hectoliter per minutes × 0.00000166666666667
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 hectoliter per minutes equals 0.00166666666667 base units, and 1 kiloliter per millisecond equals 1000 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct hectoliter per minutes-to-kiloliter per millisecond factor of 0.00000166666666667.
Simple example
1 hL/min × 0.000001666666667 = 0.0000016667 kL/ms
1 hectoliter per minutes = 0.0000016667 kiloliters per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 hL/min × 0.000001666666667 = 0.0001 kL/ms
60 hectoliter per minutes = 0.0001 kiloliters per millisecond.

Frequently asked questions
How many kiloliters per millisecond are in 1 hectoliter per minutes?
1 hectoliter per minutes equals 0.0000016667 kiloliters per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert hectoliter per minutes to kiloliter per millisecond?
Multiply the hectoliter per minutes value by 0.000001666666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert kiloliter per millisecond back to hectoliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 kiloliter per millisecond equals 600,000 hectoliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a hectoliter per minutes?
Hectoliter per Minutes (hL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a kiloliter per millisecond?
Kiloliter per Millisecond (kL/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the hectoliter per minutes to kiloliter per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both hectoliter per minutes and kiloliter per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000001666666667 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.
