About Converting Imperial quarts per Millisecond to Gallon per Minutes
Imperial quart per Millisecond and Gallon per Minutes 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
gallon per minutes = imperial quarts per millisecond × 18014.2488826
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial quart per millisecond equals 1.1365225 base units, and 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial quart per millisecond-to-gallon per minutes factor of 18014.2488826.
Simple example
1 imp qt/ms × 18014.24888 = 18,014.24888 gal/min
1 imperial quart per millisecond = 18,014.24888 gallon per minutes.
Real-world example
60 imp qt/ms × 18014.24888 = 1,080,854.933 gal/min
60 imperial quarts per millisecond = 1,080,854.933 gallon per minutes.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallon per minutes are in 1 imperial quart per millisecond?
1 imperial quart per millisecond equals 18,014.24888 gallon per minutes, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert imperial quart per millisecond to gallon per minutes?
Multiply the imperial quart per millisecond value by 18014.24888. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per minutes back to imperial quart per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000555116 imperial quarts per millisecond. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a imperial quart per millisecond?
Imperial quart per Millisecond (imp qt/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per minutes?
Gallon per Minutes (gal/min) measures volumetric flow rate. The standard US unit for pump, plumbing, and irrigation flow-rate specifications. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
Is the imperial quart per millisecond to gallon per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both imperial quart per millisecond and gallon per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 18014.24888 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.
