About Converting Kiloliter per Seconds to Gallons per Millisecond
Kiloliter per Seconds and Gallon 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
gallons per millisecond = kiloliter per seconds × 0.264172052358
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 kiloliter per seconds equals 1 base unit, and 1 gallon per millisecond equals 3.785411784 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct kiloliter per seconds-to-gallon per millisecond factor of 0.264172052358.
Simple example
1 kL/s × 0.2641720524 = 0.2641720524 gal/ms
1 kiloliter per seconds = 0.2641720524 gallons per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 kL/s × 0.2641720524 = 15.85032314 gal/ms
60 kiloliter per seconds = 15.85032314 gallons per millisecond.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallons per millisecond are in 1 kiloliter per seconds?
1 kiloliter per seconds equals 0.2641720524 gallons per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert kiloliter per seconds to gallon per millisecond?
Multiply the kiloliter per seconds value by 0.2641720524. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per millisecond back to kiloliter per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per millisecond equals 3.785411784 kiloliter per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a kiloliter per seconds?
Kiloliter per Seconds (kL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per millisecond?
Gallon per Millisecond (gal/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the kiloliter per seconds to gallon per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both kiloliter per seconds and gallon per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.2641720524 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.
