About Converting Kiloliter per Days to Deciliter per Seconds
Kiloliter per Days and Deciliter 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
deciliter per seconds = kiloliter per days × 0.115740740741
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 kiloliter per days equals 0.0000115740740741 base units, and 1 deciliter per seconds equals 0.0001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct kiloliter per days-to-deciliter per seconds factor of 0.115740740741.
Simple example
1 kL/d × 0.1157407407 = 0.1157407407 dL/s
1 kiloliter per days = 0.1157407407 deciliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 kL/d × 0.1157407407 = 6.944444444 dL/s
60 kiloliter per days = 6.944444444 deciliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many deciliter per seconds are in 1 kiloliter per days?
1 kiloliter per days equals 0.1157407407 deciliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert kiloliter per days to deciliter per seconds?
Multiply the kiloliter per days value by 0.1157407407. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert deciliter per seconds back to kiloliter per days?
Use the reverse factor: 1 deciliter per seconds equals 8.64 kiloliter per days. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a kiloliter per days?
Kiloliter per Days (kL/d) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a deciliter per seconds?
Deciliter per Seconds (dL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the kiloliter per days to deciliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both kiloliter per days and deciliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.1157407407 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.
