About Converting Kiloliter per Minutes to Quart per Seconds
Kiloliter per Minutes and 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
quart per seconds = kiloliter per minutes × 17.6114701572
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 kiloliter per minutes equals 0.0166666666667 base units, and 1 quart per seconds equals 0.000946352946 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct kiloliter per minutes-to-quart per seconds factor of 17.6114701572.
Simple example
1 kL/min × 17.61147016 = 17.61147016 qt/s
1 kiloliter per minutes = 17.61147016 quart per seconds.
Real-world example
60 kL/min × 17.61147016 = 1,056.688209 qt/s
60 kiloliter per minutes = 1,056.688209 quart per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many quart per seconds are in 1 kiloliter per minutes?
1 kiloliter per minutes equals 17.61147016 quart per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert kiloliter per minutes to quart per seconds?
Multiply the kiloliter per minutes value by 17.61147016. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert quart per seconds back to kiloliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 quart per seconds equals 0.0567811768 kiloliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a kiloliter per minutes?
Kiloliter per Minutes (kL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a quart per seconds?
Quart per Seconds (qt/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the kiloliter per minutes to quart per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both kiloliter per minutes and quart per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 17.61147016 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.
