About Converting Liter per Minutes to Liters per Fortnight
Liter per Minutes and Liter per Fortnight 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. Liter per Minutes is most often used for household tap and shower flow rates.
Formula
liters per fortnight = liter per minutes × 20160
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 liter per minutes equals 0.0000166666666667 base units, and 1 liter per fortnight equals 8.267196e-10 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per minutes-to-liter per fortnight factor of 20160.
Simple example
1 L/min × 20160 = 20,160 L/fn
1 liter per minutes = 20,160 liters per fortnight.
Real-world example
60 L/min × 20160 = 1,209,600 L/fn
60 liter per minutes = 1,209,600 liters per fortnight.

Frequently asked questions
How many liters per fortnight are in 1 liter per minutes?
1 liter per minutes equals 20,160 liters per fortnight, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per minutes to liter per fortnight?
Multiply the liter per minutes value by 20160. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert liter per fortnight back to liter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 liter per fortnight equals 0.0000496032 liter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a liter per minutes?
Liter per Minutes (L/min) measures volumetric flow rate. One liter of volume passing a point every minute. It is classified as a metric derived flow-rate unit.
What is a liter per fortnight?
Liter per Fortnight (L/fn) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per minutes to liter per fortnight conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per minutes and liter per fortnight are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 20160 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
Where is the liter per minutes still used today?
Common household and light-industrial flow specification worldwide
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.
