About Converting Liter per Seconds to Gallon per Decades
Liter per Seconds and Gallon per Decades 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 Seconds is most often used for municipal water supply and treatment plant flow rates.
Formula
gallon per decades = liter per seconds × 83364647.7601
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 liter per seconds equals 0.001 base units, and 1 gallon per decades equals 1.199549e-11 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per seconds-to-gallon per decades factor of 83364647.7601.
Simple example
1 L/s × 83364647.76 = 83,364,647.76 gal/decade
1 liter per seconds = 83,364,647.76 gallon per decades.
Real-world example
60 L/s × 83364647.76 = 5,001,878,866 gal/decade
60 liter per seconds = 5,001,878,866 gallon per decades.

Reverse conversion: Gallon per Decades to Liter per Seconds
1 gal/decade × 1.199549e-8 = 1.199549e-8 L/s
1 gallon per decades = 1.199549e-8 liter per seconds.
liter per seconds = gallon per decades × 1.199549e-8

Understanding the Liter per Seconds
Liter per Seconds (L/s) measures volumetric flow rate. One liter of volume passing a point every second — used for larger flows than liter-per-minute conveniently describes. It is classified as a metric derived flow-rate unit.
Where it's used: Common in municipal water-utility and industrial flow specifications internationally
L/s vs. L/min. Both measure the same quantity at different time scales; 1 L/s equals 60 L/min. L/s is typically used for larger, continuous industrial or utility flows, while L/min suits smaller household-scale flows.
Uses of the Liter per Seconds today
- Municipal water supply and treatment plant flow rates
- Industrial process flow specifications
- Stream and river discharge measurement at moderate scales
