About Converting Liter per Minutes to Imperial quarts per Millisecond
Liter per Minutes and Imperial quart 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. Liter per Minutes is most often used for household tap and shower flow rates.
Formula
imperial quarts per millisecond = liter per minutes × 0.0000146646165533
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 imperial quart per millisecond equals 1.1365225 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per minutes-to-imperial quart per millisecond factor of 0.0000146646165533.
Simple example
1 L/min × 0.00001466461655 = 0.0000146646 imp qt/ms
1 liter per minutes = 0.0000146646 imperial quarts per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 L/min × 0.00001466461655 = 0.000879877 imp qt/ms
60 liter per minutes = 0.000879877 imperial quarts per millisecond.

Frequently asked questions
How many imperial quarts per millisecond are in 1 liter per minutes?
1 liter per minutes equals 0.0000146646 imperial quarts per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert liter per minutes to imperial quart per millisecond?
Multiply the liter per minutes value by 0.00001466461655. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert imperial quart per millisecond back to liter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 imperial quart per millisecond equals 68,191.35 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 imperial quart per millisecond?
Imperial quart per Millisecond (imp qt/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the liter per minutes to imperial quart per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both liter per minutes and imperial quart per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00001466461655 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.
