About Converting Liter per Hours to Centiliter per Seconds
Liter per Hours and Centiliter 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
centiliter per seconds = liter per hours × 0.0277777777778
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 liter per hours equals 2.777778e-7 base units, and 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.00001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per hours-to-centiliter per seconds factor of 0.0277777777778.
Simple example
1 L/h × 0.02777777778 = 0.0277777778 cL/s
1 liter per hours = 0.0277777778 centiliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 L/h × 0.02777777778 = 1.666666667 cL/s
60 liter per hours = 1.666666667 centiliter per seconds.
Conversion table

Reverse conversion: Centiliter per Seconds to Liter per Hours
0.0277777778 cL/s × 36 = 1.000000001 L/h
0.0277777778 centiliter per seconds = 1.000000001 liter per hours.
liter per hours = centiliter per seconds × 36

Frequently asked questions
How many centiliter per seconds are in 1 liter per hours?
1 liter per hours equals 0.0277777778 centiliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per hours to centiliter per seconds?
Multiply the liter per hours value by 0.02777777778. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds back to liter per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 centiliter per seconds equals 36 liter per hours. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a liter per hours?
Liter per Hours (L/h) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a centiliter per seconds?
Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per hours to centiliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per hours and centiliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.02777777778 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.
