About Converting Tablespoon per Minutes to Metric tablespoon per Seconds
Tablespoon per Minutes and Metric tablespoon 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
metric tablespoon per seconds = tablespoon per minutes × 0.0164297386458
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 tablespoon per minutes equals 2.464461e-7 base units, and 1 metric tablespoon per seconds equals 0.000015 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct tablespoon per minutes-to-metric tablespoon per seconds factor of 0.0164297386458.
Simple example
1 tbsp/min × 0.01642973865 = 0.0164297387 metric tbsp/s
1 tablespoon per minutes = 0.0164297387 metric tablespoon per seconds.
Real-world example
60 tbsp/min × 0.01642973865 = 0.9857843188 metric tbsp/s
60 tablespoon per minutes = 0.9857843188 metric tablespoon per seconds.

What is a tablespoon per minutes?
Tablespoon per Minutes (tbsp/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a metric tablespoon per seconds?
Metric tablespoon per Seconds (metric tbsp/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the tablespoon per minutes to metric tablespoon per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both tablespoon per minutes and metric tablespoon per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.01642973865 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.
