About Converting Liter per Hours to Metric cup per Hours
Liter per Hours and Metric cup per Hours 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
metric cup per hours = liter per hours × 4
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 metric cup per hours equals 6.944444e-8 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per hours-to-metric cup per hours factor of 4.
Simple example
1 L/h × 4 = 4 metric cup/h
1 liter per hours = 4 metric cup per hours.
Real-world example
60 L/h × 4 = 240 metric cup/h
60 liter per hours = 240 metric cup per hours.
Conversion table
| Liter per Hours (L/h) | Metric cup per Hours (metric cup/h) |

Frequently asked questions
How many metric cup per hours are in 1 liter per hours?
1 liter per hours equals 4 metric cup per hours, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per hours to metric cup per hours?
Multiply the liter per hours value by 4. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert metric cup per hours back to liter per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 metric cup per hours equals 0.25 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 metric cup per hours?
Metric cup per Hours (metric cup/h) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per hours to metric cup per hours conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per hours and metric cup per hours are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 4 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.
