About Converting Liter per Hours to Deciliter per Minutes
Liter per Hours and Deciliter per Minutes 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 minutes = liter per hours × 0.166666666667
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 deciliter per minutes equals 0.00000166666666667 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per hours-to-deciliter per minutes factor of 0.166666666667.
Simple example
1 L/h × 0.1666666667 = 0.1666666667 dL/min
1 liter per hours = 0.1666666667 deciliter per minutes.
Real-world example
60 L/h × 0.1666666667 = 10 dL/min
60 liter per hours = 10 deciliter per minutes.

Frequently asked questions
How many deciliter per minutes are in 1 liter per hours?
1 liter per hours equals 0.1666666667 deciliter per minutes, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per hours to deciliter per minutes?
Multiply the liter per hours value by 0.1666666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert deciliter per minutes back to liter per hours?
Use the reverse factor: 1 deciliter per minutes equals 6 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 deciliter per minutes?
Deciliter per Minutes (dL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per hours to deciliter per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per hours and deciliter per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.1666666667 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.
