About Converting Megaliter per Minutes to Cubic yard per Seconds
Megaliter per Minutes and Cubic yard per Seconds 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. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
cubic yard per seconds = megaliter per minutes × 21.7991769886
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 megaliter per minutes equals 16.6666666667 base units, and 1 cubic yard per seconds equals 0.764554857984 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct megaliter per minutes-to-cubic yard per seconds factor of 21.7991769886.
Simple example
1 ML/min × 21.79917699 = 21.79917699 yd3/s
1 megaliter per minutes = 21.79917699 cubic yard per seconds.
Real-world example
60 ML/min × 21.79917699 = 1,307.950619 yd3/s
60 megaliter per minutes = 1,307.950619 cubic yard per seconds.

What is a megaliter per minutes?
Megaliter per Minutes (ML/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cubic yard per seconds?
Cubic yard per Seconds (yd3/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the megaliter per minutes to cubic yard per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both megaliter per minutes and cubic yard per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 21.79917699 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
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.
