About Converting Hectoliter per Minutes to Imperial quart per Seconds
Hectoliter per Minutes and Imperial quart 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
imperial quart per seconds = hectoliter per minutes × 1.46646165533
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 imperial quart per seconds equals 0.0011365225 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct hectoliter per minutes-to-imperial quart per seconds factor of 1.46646165533.
Simple example
1 hL/min × 1.466461655 = 1.466461655 imp qt/s
1 hectoliter per minutes = 1.466461655 imperial quart per seconds.
Real-world example
60 hL/min × 1.466461655 = 87.98769932 imp qt/s
60 hectoliter per minutes = 87.98769932 imperial quart per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many imperial quart per seconds are in 1 hectoliter per minutes?
1 hectoliter per minutes equals 1.466461655 imperial quart per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert hectoliter per minutes to imperial quart per seconds?
Multiply the hectoliter per minutes value by 1.466461655. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert imperial quart per seconds back to hectoliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 imperial quart per seconds equals 0.6819135 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 imperial quart per seconds?
Imperial quart per Seconds (imp qt/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the hectoliter per minutes to imperial quart per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both hectoliter per minutes and imperial quart per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1.466461655 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.
