About Converting Liters per Millisecond to Hectoliter per Seconds
Liter per Millisecond and Hectoliter 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
hectoliter per seconds = 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 hectoliter per seconds equals 0.1 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per millisecond-to-hectoliter per seconds factor of 10.
Simple example
1 L/ms × 10 = 10 hL/s
1 liter per millisecond = 10 hectoliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 L/ms × 10 = 600 hL/s
60 liters per millisecond = 600 hectoliter per seconds.
Conversion table
| Liter per Millisecond (L/ms) | Hectoliter per Seconds (hL/s) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 L/ms | 1 hL/s |
| 1 L/ms | 10 hL/s |
| 10 L/ms | 100 hL/s |
| 60 L/ms | 600 hL/s |
| 100 L/ms | 1,000 hL/s |
| 1,000 L/ms | 10,000 hL/s |
Reverse conversion: Hectoliter per Seconds to Liter per Millisecond
10 hL/s × 0.1 = 1 L/ms
10 hectoliter per seconds = 1 liter per millisecond.
liters per millisecond = hectoliter per seconds × 0.1

Frequently asked questions
How many hectoliter per seconds are in 1 liter per millisecond?
1 liter per millisecond equals 10 hectoliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per millisecond to hectoliter per seconds?
Multiply the liter per millisecond value by 10. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert hectoliter per seconds back to liter per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 hectoliter per seconds 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 hectoliter per seconds?
Hectoliter per Seconds (hL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per millisecond to hectoliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per millisecond and hectoliter per seconds 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.
