About Converting Quart per Seconds to Kiloliter per Seconds
Quart per Seconds 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 = quart per seconds × 0.000946352946
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 quart per seconds equals 0.000946352946 base units, and 1 kiloliter per seconds equals 1 base unit, so dividing one by the other gives the direct quart per seconds-to-kiloliter per seconds factor of 0.000946352946.
Simple example
1 qt/s × 0.000946352946 = 0.0009463529 kL/s
1 quart per seconds = 0.0009463529 kiloliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 qt/s × 0.000946352946 = 0.0567811768 kL/s
60 quart per seconds = 0.0567811768 kiloliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many kiloliter per seconds are in 1 quart per seconds?
1 quart per seconds equals 0.0009463529 kiloliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert quart per seconds to kiloliter per seconds?
Multiply the quart per seconds value by 0.000946352946. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert kiloliter per seconds back to quart per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 kiloliter per seconds equals 1,056.688209 quart per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a quart per seconds?
Quart per Seconds (qt/s) 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 quart per seconds to kiloliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both quart per seconds and kiloliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000946352946 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.
