Volumetric flow rate.
Liters per Millisecond to Deciliters per Millisecond Converter — L/ms to dL/ms
Convert Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) to Deciliter per Millisecond (dL/ms) using the exact conversion factor (1 liter per millisecond = 10 deciliter per millisecond). See the formula, worked examples, and conversion table.

About Converting Liters per Millisecond to Deciliters per Millisecond
Liter per Millisecond and Deciliter 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
deciliters per millisecond = liters per millisecond × 10
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 liter per millisecond equals 1 base unit, and 1 deciliter per millisecond equals 0.1 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per millisecond-to-deciliter per millisecond factor of 10.
Simple example
1 L/ms × 10 = 10 dL/ms
1 liter per millisecond = 10 deciliters per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 L/ms × 10 = 600 dL/ms
60 liters per millisecond = 600 deciliters per millisecond.
Conversion table
| Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) | Deciliter per Millisecond (dL/ms) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 L/ms | 1 dL/ms |
| 1 L/ms | 10 dL/ms |
| 10 L/ms | 100 dL/ms |
| 60 L/ms | 600 dL/ms |
| 100 L/ms | 1,000 dL/ms |
| 1,000 L/ms | 10,000 dL/ms |
Reverse conversion: Deciliter per Millisecond to Liter per Millisecond
10 dL/ms × 0.1 = 1 L/ms
10 deciliters per millisecond = 1 liter per millisecond.
liters per millisecond = deciliters per millisecond × 0.1

Frequently asked questions
How many deciliters per millisecond are in 1 liter per millisecond?
1 liter per millisecond equals 10 deciliters per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per millisecond to deciliter per millisecond?
Multiply the liter per millisecond value by 10. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert deciliter per millisecond back to liter per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 deciliter per millisecond equals 0.1 liters per millisecond. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a liter per millisecond?
Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a deciliter per millisecond?
Deciliter per Millisecond (dL/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per millisecond to deciliter per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per millisecond and deciliter per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 10 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.
