Litres per hour to Fluid Ounces per minute conversion

How to convert litres per hour to fluid ounces per minute?

To convert from Litres per Hour (L/h) to Fluid Ounces per Minute (fl. oz/min), you can follow these steps:

1. Convert Litres to Fluid Ounces:

   • There are approximately 33.814 fluid ounces (fl. oz) in 1 litre (L).

2. Convert Hours to Minutes:

   • There are 60 minutes in 1 hour.

Conversion Formula

Given: 1 L/h

First, we convert litres to fluid ounces: $1 \text{ L} \times 33.814 \text{ fl. oz/L} = 33.814 \text{ fl. oz}$

Now, convert the time unit from hours to minutes by dividing by 60: $\frac{33.814 \text{ fl. oz}}{60 \text{ minutes}} = 0.56357 \text{ fl. oz/min}$

So, 1 L/h is approximately 0.56357 fluid ounces per minute (fl. oz/min).

Real World Examples

Example 1: Water Flow from a Home Tap

• Flow Rate: 10 Litres per hour (L/h)
• Conversion to fl. oz/min: $10 \times 0.56357 = 5.6357 \text{ fl. oz/min}$

Example 2: Fuel Consumption in a Small Engine

• Flow Rate: 5 Litres per hour (L/h)
• Conversion to fl. oz/min: $5 \times 0.56357 = 2.81785 \text{ fl. oz/min}$

Example 3: Drip Irrigation System

• Flow Rate: 25 Litres per hour (L/h)
• Conversion to fl. oz/min: $25 \times 0.56357 = 14.08925 \text{ fl. oz/min}$

By converting various flow rates from litres per hour to fluid ounces per minute, you can better understand the specifics and granular details of different fluid systems, whether for small-scale or industrial purposes.
