About Converting Megaliter per Minutes to Kiloliter per Seconds
Megaliter per Minutes and Kiloliter 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
kiloliter per seconds = megaliter per minutes × 16.6666666667
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 kiloliter per seconds equals 1 base unit, so dividing one by the other gives the direct megaliter per minutes-to-kiloliter per seconds factor of 16.6666666667.
Simple example
1 ML/min × 16.66666667 = 16.66666667 kL/s
1 megaliter per minutes = 16.66666667 kiloliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 ML/min × 16.66666667 = 1,000 kL/s
60 megaliter per minutes = 1,000 kiloliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many kiloliter per seconds are in 1 megaliter per minutes?
1 megaliter per minutes equals 16.66666667 kiloliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert megaliter per minutes to kiloliter per seconds?
Multiply the megaliter per minutes value by 16.66666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert kiloliter per seconds back to megaliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 kiloliter per seconds equals 0.06 megaliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a megaliter per minutes?
Megaliter per Minutes (ML/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a kiloliter per seconds?
Kiloliter per Seconds (kL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the megaliter per minutes to kiloliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both megaliter per minutes and kiloliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 16.66666667 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.
