About Converting Liter per Seconds to Metric tablespoons per Millisecond
Liter per Seconds and Metric tablespoon 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 Seconds is most often used for municipal water supply and treatment plant flow rates.
Formula
metric tablespoons per millisecond = liter per seconds × 0.0666666666667
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 metric tablespoon per millisecond equals 0.015 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct liter per seconds-to-metric tablespoon per millisecond factor of 0.0666666666667.
Simple example
1 L/s × 0.06666666667 = 0.0666666667 metric tbsp/ms
1 liter per seconds = 0.0666666667 metric tablespoons per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 L/s × 0.06666666667 = 4 metric tbsp/ms
60 liter per seconds = 4 metric tablespoons per millisecond.

Reverse conversion: Metric tablespoon per Millisecond to Liter per Seconds
0.0666666667 metric tbsp/ms × 15 = 1.000000001 L/s
0.0666666667 metric tablespoons per millisecond = 1.000000001 liter per seconds.
liter per seconds = metric tablespoons per millisecond × 15

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
