Frequently asked questions
What is the source unit in this conversion?
The source unit is megaliters per hour (ML/h). The Megaliter (ML) is a unit of volume. The Hour (h) is a unit of time.
What is the destination unit in this conversion?
The destination unit is hectoliters per second (hL/s). The Hectoliter (hL) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
How do I convert megaliters per hour to hectoliters per second?
Multiply the megaliters per hour value by 2.77778 to get hectoliters per second. For example, 10 ML/h × 2.77778 = 27.7778 hL/s.
Is the megaliters per hour to hectoliters per second conversion exact?
It's exact under the SI-based volume and time definitions used here, since both units convert to cubic meters per second through fixed, non-rounded factors.
Where is this conversion commonly used?
Flow rate conversions like this are used in plumbing, HVAC, irrigation, chemical processing, fuel and water metering, and engineering flow calculations.
Can I convert hectoliters per second back to megaliters per hour?

About this conversion
This page converts megaliters per hour (ML/h) into hectoliters per second (hL/s), two units of volumetric flow rate.
The Megaliter (ML) is a unit of volume. The Hour (h) is a unit of time.
The Hectoliter (hL) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
The formula is hL/s = ML/h × 2.77778, based on the fixed relationship between these two flow rate units.
Flow rate is calculated as a volume unit divided by a time unit, so every combination of a volume unit and a time unit forms a valid, exact flow rate unit.
